Whilst listening to talksport last night, they were on about andriod apps, the app they mentioned was Boggle, so i thought id download it myself, the only problem is it was the wrong app but i can't seem to delete it off my htc wildfire. I've found the app on my phone and kept it pressed until delete comes up, then i goes but then i look into the phone apps again, and there it is, still there, am i doing something wrong???

From the home screen, press the settings button. Then select "Applications" and "Manage Applications". Select Boggle. Select "Uninstall". That's how you uninstall any app in Android.

It sounds like you were long-pressing the app's icon just dragging that icon into the garbage can. That doesn't uninstall an app. It just removes the icon from the desktop screen.
