Use Unlocker to delete that folder,and run CCleaner to get rid of the temp files.

and run an anti spyware scan with ad-aware se + spybot s & d ...u have been infected most probably ... and ccleaner really rocks. use all the three to clean ur system.

Looks like some virus has infected your System. Also delete all unnecessay files
in the temp folder periodically. There are lots of software available to do that.
