Try booting into safe mode and doing it or sticking the Hard Drive in another PC to delete the folder.

Change the folder options to show all the hidden files and then delete it that way?

Have a look on www.download.com for a program called "Unlocker". Allows you to delete locked files and folders. Only other suggestion I can be arsed to make

used command prompt to delete it using its shorter name (not sure what its called) but in this case it was E:\ICON~1, use the RD /S command
