Hi,
I think that the problem is that you don't have the proper permissions
to delete that file. (in case that your o.s. is Linux type)
Your webserver runs as a certain user (usually nobody) and the files'
owner is another user like webmaster.
So check the chmod and chown commands under Linux.
If it is not Linux that i don't know :))
p.s. It would be great to write the os type and webserver type in a post.
Andras.
