After downloading some files. Stuffit Expander crashed whilst unzipping a compressed archive. I tried again a further twice to unzip the archive and the same happened. I now have 4 files that the system refuses to trash.

Error message as follows:


Preparing to move to "trash"

 !

The item "XXX" is being used by another task right now.
(Other tasks include moving, copying, or emptying the Trash)

Try again when the other task is complete.



How can I get rid of these corrupted files. If I have to use the terminal - what are the instructions?
I'm running OSX 10.2.8

cheers and thanks

Doug Sheerer
