What, if you start a live system from USB or CDROM, then mount the partition 
and delete it?

First question.: Will these be recreated? Then I would guess, you are starting 
some apps as root using "su -" , or "sudo".

Second question: If you can not delete it as root, are there some ACL (Access 
Control List) set? 

And third: You may check the rights, maybe there is the "immutable" bit set 
for.

Just some ideas, hope it will help though....

Best
