Rob,

Are you using IIS?

I found that most files are kind of "locked" by IIS for a few seconds (but how many remains a mystery to me), so you cannot overwrite or delete them during that time. Two solutions, either wait for IIS to give back the rights on the file, or stop/restart IIS for the connection to drop.

If you're not using IIS I'm clueless.
