I've tried rebooting my MacBook Pro... tried secure empty trash, tried Option+Empty Trash... only way to reboot is to first Force Quit the Finder... what ever I do, I can't put anything in the Trash and empty it.
Anyone have an idea how I can fix this?
Thanks heaps.

Hey red-handler,
That sounds frustrating! After some research, I found the following resource which may point to a resolution:
You can't empty the Trash or move a file to the Trash

The free Trash It! often seems to come to the rescue for those with similar problems.
