ok, I've got this thing called "challengers from the sidelines", and it says it is a PDF file, the size ie size was 3.28 MB, and the last date it modified was 2-3-2013. this thing will not delete, in fact if you if you try to delete it, a message pops up saying it can't be deleted because it's running in windows reader. but there is nothing in windows reader.
any idea on how to get this deleted?

If you are not familiar with the file, also recommend doing a system scan, check unknown registry entries, and check task manager for unknown processes.
