Files that wont go away!/desktop/XPmediasp2

I was trying to download the demo of Farcry via Firefox, and due to my current crappy broadband connection it stated that it was going to take upto 11hrs. So i cancelled the download after 14% as Iam inpatient. However the remains of the file are still on my desktop and when I have tried to delete them via 'right click, delete' it states that the file is still in use and for me to close down its application e.g. remove the reamains of the download. Despite me doing all this and trying to actually delete the files by hand whilst searching for them, they still remain on my desktop for no apparent reason despite me running numerous windows test to get rid of them.

This bugs me, anyhelp?

Also, since installing my soundcard my I decided to delet the soundmax drivers of my harddrive as I dont use them. Now everytime I boot up it asks me to install the software for the drivers! how do I deactivate this?

The soundmax drivers, was that on-board audio?

get 'remove on boot', google will find it.

Don't know about the drivers thang.

I have got rid of those files now and I thought I managed to get rid of the files on my desktop but the on-board drivers are still coming up when I boot up. Any other suggestions?
