Can't delete files!

Recently I used Windows to delete "SecuRom" from my computer. After I did
that it left some "hidden" files in one of my main folders. I have managed
to drag that folder onto my desktop but I can not get it into my recycle bin.
Everytime I try and delete the files I am told that the files no longer
exist, yet I can see an icon very clearly stating that they are in fact
there. The file names themselves look like some weird gothic writing, I'm
guessing they are just left over code and that the windows no longer has a
key to them, but how do I delete them off my desktop and get rid of the
icons??
