Default locked file

This isnt really an excel question but I thought Id try on here just in case
anyones come across this before.

In short I have a networked xls file which the server thinks is open and
therefore the users can do nothing with it apart from use it as read only.

The file is not open but I cant do anything with this file in terms of
delete, overwrite etc.

Anyone know any fancy ways (apart from rebooting the server) how to solve
this problem?

Thanks
