Need permission to move files to trash
Since I've upgraded to OS X 10.8.2, every time I try to move a file to the trash, I must type in my password. How do I undo this feature?
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum Late 2008), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

See if this works:
Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following:
sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash
Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not echo to the screen.
