In the middle of downloading a large 300+mb demo, another program I was
installing forced a restart.  After rebooting, I cleared my Download manager,
yet there's still an incomplete corrupted file on my desktop.  I cannot delete
it, i get the following msg: "Cannot delete <filename>: It is being used by
another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the file and
try again".

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start downloading a file
2. hit the reset button on your computer
