[snipped: can't move/delete files from Explorer or CMD]

Maybe good old WinFile can help; see:
<http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm>,
line 71, right hand column; or more to the point:
<http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs_edits/WINFILE.EXE>.

Works here (NT5.1).

Similar tools:
NET FILES
handle.exe from sysinternals
<http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/handle.shtml>
Boot using Safe Mode.
Boot using Recovery Console.

Also: check NTFS permissions; uninstall the application which uses the
file.
