    Think you may have to go to the add or remove programs and uninstall it before deleting it.

    try running on safe mode and then deleating them or close all the icons on the bottom right of your screen maybe they are being used in the background? if you have a anit-virus software maybe try disconnecting from the net and disable it and try to delete them dont forget to turn ur AV on again tho.
