delete contents of hidden folder?

Yes, use Terminal, and type "rm -r ******/private/var/flexlm". rm stands for remove...the -r means recursive, which will remove a folder and everything in it, as opposed to just one item. Note: anything removed this way doesn't go into the Trash....

...or if rm is too scary, and you want to move it to Trash before permanently deleting it, use Terminal but type open /var and a Finder window will appear (magically ) and you can drag the desired folder(s) to trash (or mark them and use cmd-backspace).
