Could you give us details of the program?

Many malicious programs do this, however it is mainly caused if another program is using files related to that program, and thus it cannot close them. Also make sure that the program, or none of it's related programs appear in the process list. It could even be solved by a simple reboot.

With details of the program, we can tell you if it is a malicious program or not, and what you can do. Even the filename will be of great help. Make sure you have scanned it with a virus scanner and Anti-Spyware software.

If you know it's not a used share file that some other pertinent application needs, you can use moveonboot to get rid of it.

It just forcibly removes any file you need removed/moved at the next boot.
