Someone used my iMac and after use I found the file name above in my Trash. I can not dump it even if I shutdown and restart my iMac. I can choose Empty trash and it sounds like it is emptying the trash but this file? still stays. Anyone seen this and know what to do?
Thanks.:\

This is why it's ALWAYS a bad idea to let someone use your personal account on a Mac, and why Macs have guest accounts. Hopefully, lesson learned there.

I would suggest resetting Safari or whatever web browser they may have used. Backup your bookmarks first.
