Move the file onto your desktop and do these things:

Open the terminal.app

type "sudo rm " without the quotes and then drag your file you want to delete onto the terminal window.

The path of the file will be put into the terminal for you.

Hit enter

type in your administrator password

the file will be deleted.
:D
 
No problem.

OS X is in it's infancy still and you can't expect things to be perfect yet. I'm sure Apple will fix these little bugs with files being owned by root or something when they shouldn't be.
