deleting files in XP

Is there a way to delete files that the system says are in use or otherwise undeletable? I'm trying to remove junkware that installed itself with something I demo'ed from download.com. There are one or two components of each piece of junkware that won't go away. I'm hoping there's a DOS mode or damn-the-torpedoes function that will let me delete these files regardless of the consequence.

It's very annoying that to uninstall this junkware I have to register with the host company's website to get an uninstall key. That's got to be illegal.

Thanks,
Sixto
