Help deleting a message

When using Start>Start Search...then type in a few characters...a message
show up under "communications" with the icon with a pin on it. I can click
on the item as see the message which is one I read on a newsgroup.
How do I delete this thing??? Or better, where is it?
I have unsubscribed from ALL newsgroups, cleaned out all mail boxes,
compacted mail and can only find this message using Start search. Any help
appreciated.

Re: Help deleting a message

Instead of clicking on the item to open it, delete it.

Re: Help deleting a message

When pointing to it, the underline appears and the delete key has no effect.
Left click opens, right click give options of open, forward, send to, etc
but there is no delete option.
I have just discovered I have a folder "Microsoft.public.windows.vista.mail"
on my hard drive even though I have unsubscribed to it.
Maybe deleting this folder will solve the problem.
