Anyone ever seen this before...

Hello all -
I've got an interesting situation that I wanted to see if anyone has ever seen
before.
On a red hat 7.3 system with ext3, I have a directory that just won't delete.
Keep getting the error:
rm: cannot remove directory 'foo' : Directory not empty
The directory, however, is empty.
I've taken the partition where this directory lives and mounted it read only
then run fsck against it. Nothing, no problems reported. I then figured I'd
move the dir to another part of the system and try removing it there. THe
directory won't move off it's partition, which says to me it's partition
related.
I can't seem to find anything in several attempts to google the answer. So it
leaves me asking the question, has anyone seen this before and if so can you
lead me in a direction to attempt a solution?
thanks
brad
