Help, I can't empty the trash in OS X!

If you get a message that says: "The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items" when you try to empty your trash can, try BatChmod. It is a front end for manipulating Nix file and folder privileges in OS X, and it will force empty the trash for you.

got feedback?
