I burned a DVD, and during the recovery the Finder became unresponsive. I guess it has to with the external USB enclosure that the data was coming from, and that has been acting up. Anyway, after some time I clicked the Stop button on the verify window, and a few minutes later I relaunched the Finder. Now I have a burn directory sitting on my desktop that I can't delete because it is "locked". It has a little lock icon on the lower left, and when I try to delete it or the files inside, it says I can't because it's locked. Do I actually have to reboot the computer to get rid of that? Will that even help? What else can I do to unlock that directory?

1) Right click > Get Info
2) Uncheck "Locked" |

Option + empty trash will do the same thing.
