How the hell do you know they are still there then!?

 

[Wojtek]

because it always says "are you sure to wan to delete the 2 items in the recycle bin" yes/no, still does that msg

C:\Recycled [Win2k]
C:\RECYCLER [WinXP]
Dunno where they are for other OSes but I presume in the same general area. Hidden folders.-See if there's anything in those folders (or sub-folders of those folders) then open a command prompt window and delete them.

bin

I have had that problem before-
Maybe those two items can't be deleted in the bin. Have you tried to remove them in "add/remove programs"?
i wish you luck
