Deleting Old .BAK file Problem

Hello,
My Backup Maintenance Plan is scheduled to delete old
backup (.BAK) files but for some odd reason it cannot
delete two old files. When i go in to delete them manually
or check the security settings ,but give me an access
denied prompt. I am logged in as Administrator w/ full
rights, but only these files are giving me denied access.
Please help
Thanks in advance
ATHi,
Stop SQL Agent service and try deleting the file.
Thanks
Hari

Incase if this fail, check any other process uses this file. Mostly it will
be some backup processes (tape / disk copy).
