[olug] directory impossible to delete

[Ryan O'Rourke]

Somehow I've ended up with a directory on my filesystem that is owned by
user '9437684' and group '9437680' with permissions of 774. Neither user
nor group actually exist on my machine and I'm guessing that somehow
through transfer of files from one machine to another I have ended up
with this error.
The problem is I can't delete it, even as root, and I also can't create
a user called '9437684' in order to delete it. Is there someway I can
get rid of that directory?

Thanks.
