When you check the folder properties, who does it say owns the folder, and what modes are set on it?
Is there anything in the folder? Do you have your FTP client set to be able to delete non-empty folders?

There's folder properties... it doesn't say who owns it o.0

Modes: I have no idea, don't know how to set them/unset them/view them

Anything in it: Nope

Del Empty Folders: Yes

Just as it says right there, its owned by the user and group "apache", meaning it was created by the server.
You have Frontpage extensions enabled on your account. This means that the server will create several files and folders in your site. It's a bad idea to remove them manually, and if they are owned by the server, you won't be able to remove them at all.
