I am using Mac OS 10.4.11, and I ran an application which put the entire Macromedia Flash directory into the trash. It contained a locked file, which I took out again, but the system is insisting that that item is still there. In fact, nothing is left in the trash, but if I try to delete a new item, I get an error message afterwards. Is there any way to clear that?

You can try the popular Cocktail. And use it to delete locked or inaccessible items. Besides that, Cocktail is also pretty good for keeping your Mac in good shape.

I fixed it by making hidden files visible, then putting my trash into the admin's trash and restarting. That put everything back to normal.
