I've got several pdf file icons on my B&W desktop that the kids downloaded and I can't get rid of them. When I try to drag them to the trash, a message comes up saying that "they are being used by another task right now" and to try later.

Or... Launch OS 9, locate the offending icons on the desktop of the OS X volume, drag them to the trash, and empty the trash from the finder menu while holding down the option key.

True, but simply rebooting OS X would have freed the files as well.
