Unstick that stuck file or folder

Ever try and delete a file or folder and get one of the following messages:
  • Cannot delete file: Access is denied
  • There has been a sharing violation.
  • The source or destination file may be in use.
  • The file is in use by another program or user.
  • Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.
I did just last night trying to clean a friends computer. Tried shutting down all applications and processes but could not find what was locking it. I searched Google and came across a pretty cool free tool called Unlocker. Simple to use and works like a charm.
