How do I go about locating a rogue FLV file?

This has been baffling me for weeks. I downloaded a three part documentary about Devils Island. I burned the disc, and then deleted the downloads. (I have a weird thing about not having any clutter)

Anyhow, they are still showing up. If I do a search for something starting with a 'D', the three files pop up.

I've clicked on them and gone to the folder location, (the folder location is where I saved them) but they aren't there. I try to delete them, and it says they cannot be found.

Checked the properties,it says opens with Windows media player. Try to do that, again, it says they cannot be found.

I tried the hidden files as well, no luck.

If I don't get rid of these files soon, I'm gonna go out back and break something.

Please help!!
 
They are not on your computer anymore, but they are still on a list of recently opened files so there are shortcuts for them and that is what you are finding.
