what the hell is this and how can I get RID OF IT??!?! It
does not show up as a running process, and is always
running so I cannot delete it...

Updated virus scans do not seem to find it.

you got nothing to say? say nothing then... and thanks for
nothing, ass.

Probably because you say nothing of value in the body of your post.
Just because you post the subject does not mean you do not elaborate
about it in the body.
Furthermore, you changed the title so the very item you need
information about is now gone.
Carey gave you a good link to help you make a better post.
A better post generally gets more answers because it is clear to the
reader.
Name calling someone attempting to help you generally gets you the
opposite.

You gave no important details such as:
Where is it
What it does
When it started
Etc

Do a Google search on it to see if it can be identified.
Run an updated virus scan.
Check for spyware.

THANK YOU JupiterJones.
I appreciate your help... as for "CareyFrisch" he seemd
more dismissive then helpful; maybe I was overly sensitive
because I am frustrated w/ this mysterious file. Anyway...

Perflib_Perfdata_488 is a file in my
documents&settings/temp folder which seems to be
active/running (as I cannot delete it, nor can Norton
Antivirus scan it) It is new; I have not seen it before,
yet it always gives a creation date of the last time I
started my computer... ANY help is appreciated.

Reboot to Safe Mode to delete the file:
Reboot tapping F8 each second.
Select Safe Mode at the menu.
