[QUOTE="rman, post: 13019, member: 23"] I have read in seeral places thaqt Norton, does not work will with OS X as of yet. Most people are suggesting that disk warrior is better. You may want to take your system down to single user and run a file system check (fsck -y). That should fix any problems with the file system. Also under single user mode you can delete the file you are having a problem with. I just don't know where the trash is located. Note this you can do will your system is up in the normal mode. I think I have read, that you can delete doing the following: Open up a terminal window, also open up the trash. In the terminal window enter the following with out the quotes. "sudo rm " Next drag the item from the trash can into the terminal window that you want to delete, then press the enter/return key. [/QUOTE]
