Vista - unable to delete files

How do I remove/delete files from my Windows Mail folder that I already
deleted and cleared from "Deleted Items" folder in Windows Mail?
These files are accessed by typing "Windows Mail" in the "Search" box. I am
running Windows Vista and IE7, SP1 is installed and I have tried to download
Vista update 941090 and got the reply"The update dos not apply to your
system". The files that I want to delete are not causing any problem,but I
would
like to get rid of the headers which still appear. I can only access these
files by
typing "Windows Mail" in the "search" box. .....Thanks

When Search finds that deleted email, are you actually able to read
the body text of that deleted email? I think it just has the header info.
It will take time for the search cache to get updated.

If you have SP1, then you already have the update.

There is likely a mismatch between the WinMail database and the message
store. Perhaps antivirus software deleted the messages and the database
still thinks they are there.

Try compacting and repairing the database using my Windows mail utility
(www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/) and see if that helps at all.
