Vista - Delete File on Desktop

I placed a Micosoft Word file, Custom.dic on the desktop to conveniently
save it in unicode as required by Word Spelling. The problem now is I can't
get it off my desktop. I have deleted it several times--using ordinary
delete and wiping with encryption programs. The file temporarily disappears
from the desktop, but it reappears after the next reboot. Any way to get rid
of the file on my desktop?

You'll need to go into Word and change the location of the custom dictionary
file to keep it from re-appearing on the desktop.
