Stuborn file in trash can.

Question

Hi,
I have a strange file in my Trash can , that refuses to be deleted.
I do a 'ls' and see the following :
$ ls
ls: Tiếng Việt.html: No such file or directory
total 0
drwxrwxrwx 3 root admin 102 Apr 24 23:45 .
drwxrwxrwx 3 root admin 102 Apr 24 23:45 ..
if I then try to delete Tiếng Việt.html I get :
rm -R Tie\314\202\314\201ng\ Vie\314\202\314\243t.html
rm: Tiếng Việt.html: No such file or directory
Note that I dont type the filename. I press <TAB> after the T and it autocompletes the filename.
I have tried forcing the deletion of the entire .Trash directory without any success. I have tried Trashit & Cocktail without success.
Any ideas.
Alan.

Niel,
Ran the Disk Utility :
Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”
Determining correct file permissions.
Permissions repair complete
The privileges have been verified or repaired on the selected volume
But still got the same results :
$ ls
ls: Tiếng Việt.html: No such file or directory
total 0
drwxrwxrwx 3 root admin 102 Apr 24 23:45 .
drwxrwxrwx 3 root admin 102 Apr 24 23:45 ..
$ rm T*
rm: Tiếng Việt.html: No such file or directory
