I don't know if this applies in your specific case, but generally you cannot delete files through an applet (assuming you mean JAVA) as this is considered a potential security risk. (A rogue program could potentially have the ability to arbitrarily delete files of someone's system which could have disastrous results)
But you are having the applet call this script, which is doing the removing of files, I don't know if this applies in your case.

Anyone know some more about this?

xfce4-popup-windowlist

xfce4-popup-windowlist(1)				      General Commands Manual					 xfce4-popup-windowlist(1)

NAME

       xfce4-popup-windowlist - shows the Xfce window list applet popup

SYNOPSIS

       xfce4-popup-windowlist [ -pointer ]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the xfce4-popup-windowlist command.

       xfce4-popup-windowlist shows the Xfce window list if at least one Xfce window list applet is present on one of your panel(s).

       The  default behaviour is to show the window list near the applet button.  If you have several Xfce window list applets, only the first one
       you have set up will pop up.

       If you want to pop up the window list without using the window list applet on your panel(s), see the manual page for xfdesktop(1).

OPTIONS

       -pointer
	      The window list appears at your current mouse position instead of its default position.

       xfce4-popup-menu(1), xfdesktop(1)
