When I try to delete or move a file in My Documents,
Windows places a copy of that file right back into MY
Documents. I then try to get rid of that one, and I get
another file called "copy of copy of ..." Please advise.

Try deleting the file with the keyboard instead of the mouse. With the
file(s) highlighted, press Delete.
