two "unix executables" are in the trash and will reappear when deleted

I cannot do anything to get rid of these files.


They are 0000000000017bcc and 0000000000017bcd and they do not have any extension but they are shown in get info and unix executables.


When I try to empty trash, it will make the sound but they reappear. If I open the trash in Finder and delete them from there, they reappear immediately. I also attempted to delete them from Terminal using the rm -R command but Terminal says they don't exist.


I also rebooted the system but with no result.


They are small files, bcc is 906kb and 753 bytes, so they aren't taking tons of space but it is kind of annoying.


Thanks
