Unable to delete an .exe file

I have followed the tutorial to add the Take Ownership function to Vista but even with this I am unable to delete this exe. Its left over from when I uninstalled Asus software after a recent change of motherboards.

Is there anyway I can remove this as its generating an error message on startup.
