Hi,
Have you tried explicitly taking ownership of the folder?
Right-click the folder in question then click:
Properties>Security>Advanced>Owner>Edit
Select your admin account you are logged on with and check the box that says "Replace owner on subcontainers and objects"
Click OK.
Try deleting it again.
If that fails, http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/unlocker1.8.7.exe
I have had considerable success using that handy little utility.
Afterwards, if you are not already using it, I recommend installing and scanning with
MS Security Essentials.
