Hi, bird10.

Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

Here are the best two articles I could find that may help you delete the item you are having issues with.

You can't empty the Trash or move a file to the Trash
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1526

Unable to move, unlock, modify, or copy an item in Mac OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1402

Cheers,

Jason H.
