Yes. Some programs, such as Spybot Search & Destroy, provide a utility that securely deletes files from drives, including memory sticks, or dongles. Also, the utility provided by SysInternals, SDelete, is a good one.

Another possibility is that the files are being recreated by applications or processes that rely on them.
