more information please. Meaning, the full path of the file, the exact filename, and the date. To show the full file name, please do this: from your windows explorer, go to tools, folder options..., go to view, under hidden files and folders, select "show hidden files and folders", uncheck "hide file extensions for known file types". Alternatively, you can sent that file to symantec for verification. If that is a virus inffected file, you should delete it.
