Problem Emptying Recycle Bin

This is just a minor irritant, since I've been living with it close to
a year, but I'm curious ....

When I hit Empty Recycle Bin, I get the error message: "Cannot remove
folder Owner: Access is denied." I hit "OK" (there is no other option)
and the Bin is emptied just fine with nothing (visible) remaining.

Of course I don't have a folder labeled "Owner" in my Bin.

Any ideas on how to clear this small irritant up?
 
Thanks for the response. I did what you suggested. Tried a delete and
got the same error message. I rebooted, just in case ... and still had
the same problem.
