Hi

Often when deleting my Photo's - having burnt them to CD I'm getting the
error that the file is in use... why's that ?
If I turn on my firewall to block all incoming traffic, the error persists,
yet will disappear if I kill explorer.exe

What's going on ?

It just means that an application is still accessing / using the file.
Perhaps you have the photo open in an application while attempting to delete
it.
