I was trying to get rid of a program I downloaded, must've done it wrong, then I read the right way to do it, but now it seems I can't empty the trash, maybe I have to reinstall the program first, because maybe there's a missing component that's preventing the trash to be emptied? :[

Hi, Thank You for the advice, it worked. I really appreciate it. :) Now if only I could fix the trackpad, it'd be great. This is the BEST machine I ever had!

I was in the thread about trackpads and mentioned it there after someone else's post.
