When you see a padlock next to something that you want to edit, it means that component is "Checked-out". This can happen for many reasons. To remove it:

  1. Joomla 1.5: Tools > Global Check-in
  2. Joomla 1.0: System menu > Global Check-in
If there are checked out components a green tick will appear next to everything that has been checked back in.

  3. In Joomla 1.0 Click on the trash manager icon in the homepage (or use the Site >Trash Manager). Note the drop down menu showing Menu and Content items - choose what the appropriate option
  4. Tick the item that you want to delete
