files"

when i go to clean the temporary internet files, there
are certain files that will not be deleted. if i
run "cleandisk" and then (afterwards) run it again so
that i get the window with the list of "caches", and then
click "view" for the "temporary internet files", i get 4
folders plus an "index" file. the folders can be manually
deleted, except for the folder "OTEBCD17", which contains
a file called "admissions[1]". when i try to delete the
folder i get the message "cannot delete admissions[1].
cannot find the specified file". the other contents of
the folder can be manually deleted, but not "admissions
[1]". with another folder, "WX27WTQZ", the same thing
happens with the same message for a file
called ";ID=101683;size=468x60;setID=18114;aff=on;loc=0;ty
pe=iframe[1]", as well as with another file in that same
folder called "search[1]". if anyone knows why these wont
delete, or how to delete them, i would appreciate the
info. also, the file "index" does not delete either, but
i think that is a system file that is supposed to stay
there. i do wonder why it is in the "temporary internet
files" folder, however. thanks to all for any info.
