Just to clarify: When you highlight that file and press the DEL key, you get that message about Win32 application?
1. Where does the file reside?
2. What is the exact name of the file, including the extension.
3. What kind of file do think it is?

Try booting into Safe Mode. While starting your computer tap the F8 key once every second during the memory count up, or during the system spash screen where you see the system maker's name (HP, COMPAQ, DELL....etc.)
This will result in a text based menu. Use the curors/arrorw keys to navigate to SAFE MODE and hit enter.
Try to delete that file.
What antivirus and antispyware software are you running? Are they up-to-date and have you run full scans recently? If you haven't, do that next.

You could also try KillBox.
"KillBox is a tool to delete in-use files, if the file is running, KillBox will attempt to end the process (close the running file) and delete it."
