I downloaded a bittorent file, and I had problems connecting to the tracker, but the file it started downloading is still on my desktop, whenever I try to delete it, it says the file is in use. I've tried ctrl+alt+delete and looked in my applications and no program related to what I was downloading was being used, I've also tried restarting, none of this is working, anyone know of any other ways I can delete this?

Bump. It is not an installed program so I can't add or remove it through the add or remove programs option, its basically just an icon, but I think its fekking up my Bittorent downloads which is why I must delete it, I don't really want to reformat my computer just because of 1 icon that I can't delete.

He tried filling the cd tray with jam. Then he tried to pretend it was a ham sandwich. Then he tried to be kind to animals... none seemed to help.
