I trying to delete some files that I don't want but I can't seem to delete them. 
Specifically they are sample pictures and audio files that are provided with Vista. 
I've tried to reset the pemisions but I don't seem to be able to change them and, 
therefore, are unable to delete the files.

I've done some reading about this and unless I'm getting this wrong (which is possible) 
the reason is that they are classified as System files and even I as the PC owner/administrator 
am not allowed to delete them.

Any advice??

Mike
