1. Use sysinternals' process explorer to see if anything has a handle on the the files in question. if something does have a handle, (although Securom doesn't use device drivers like Starforce I think) then try and kill that process. If you can't kill the process then some more work is need to find out when that process is started. For starters check Services, non-pnp drivers (hidden by default) in the Device Manager, and System Drivers (System Info)
2. if there's no handle open then try and delete it through cygwin (unix environment) if you have a copy to hand
3. if you still can't then boot your machine with a linux live cd e.g. knoppix, and delete it with that!
