I don't know why they appear, and when I press delete, it says "You do not have permission to perform this action."
These items are back-ups from Windows Update and Service Pack 2, along with System Restore files, deleting them is probably not a good idea...
If you must restart in Safe Mode and log in as Administrator, this will allow you to delete them.
Hope that helps.
