Just took a quick look at the SO link. First, if possible, can you use something like LCDS or BlazeDS that can kind of just handle this for you? Second, if you want to manually iterate through the list to check the status of items, remove them, etc, do it backwards. This will keep your iterator from getting screwed up if you, say, delete the item at that index location.
