Task manager doesn't usually show this file, but lately I've been
having computer trouble and this file shows up in Task Manager.

I starts with a space. Then wowexe.exe No size indicated. Werid
-- task manager files usually show the size.

If this a proper file?

wow.exe is a valid windows process, unfortunatly some trojans also use this
same name.

What virus scanner are you using? Try doing an online scan.
