can't delete files

• MLP

  i'm posting this across a few places, but i figure someone here might know...

  i have a linked eps to a illustrator file that i can't delete. its saying it 's being used. i've tried restarting, opening the file and the linked file and saved them, etc. and still can't delete it.

  is there any way to find out what process is using it or to get rid of it? i'm on a PC running win xp, and yes i own a mac as well so i don't need to hear "go buy a mac to fix your problem." thanks.

  Start -> Run -> cmd.. and just delete it from there. Navigate to the folder and just 'DEL file.ai' it out..
