I've never had a problem deleting files from a CD-RW, but your error message 
has me thinking that you might have a CD-R in there instead of the CD-RW.  A 
CD-RW acts just like a floppy in the sense that anything that is on there 
can be deleted just like if it was on a hard drive.  If it is a CD-RW are 
you sure that the file you're trying to delete is not see it to the write 
protected?  Right-click on the file and check its properties if this write 
protected that should tell you.
