Confused.. help?

I know how to remove some bad trojans/viruses/malware/etc..
Except im kind of stuck here.

I got a error message saying something about a folder called "~EXB000" in my temp folder. (Sorry, I closed the message before registering.)
So I went to my temp folder and tried to delete, it says "Cannot delete setup.exe, access is denied."

Outside of this folder are two other files I cannot delete.
These files are Perflib_Perfdata_f00 and etilqs_0kXzMQx9UaIdsgeqLQY0.
The perflib is a dat file and the other random one is just a "file".

I ran a full scan with SUPERAntiSpyware, Windows Live Onecare, and Spybot Search and Destroy.
Everything was negative, nothing was found.

Im just wondering over those three files in my temp folder that cannot be deleted.. Are they bad? Will the setup.exe run without my permission? How do I delete a file already in use, but I do not know what the proccess is?

Thanks in advance.
