files that love the trash

[patrick fisher]

I had a few files of files that would not delete from the trash. Two of them were
locked and the permissions were set to my daughter. As admin, I tried to change the
permissions in the getinfo window, but it wouldn't let me and said an 'error one'
occurred. I used disk utility to go in and fix the permissions, however that didn't
work.

The only thing that worked was going into the terminal and use:

sudo rm filename

to delete the files.

I wonder what caused the OS to not allow permissions to be changed on the files? I
thought Disk Utilility would fix that. I should have tried trashing the files logged
in as my daughter.
