You need to check for malware. A Google Groups search showed no mention
of that file, other than your post. That suggests that some type of
malware created the file.

Click Start, Run, type REGEDIT, click OK. Press the Home key, press F3,
type the name of the file into the search pane. Click "Find Next", and
when located, delete the reference to the file. Press F3 to continue
the search.

You can click File, Export, and save the entry to the Desktop. If you
remove the registry entry and there's a problem, double-click the .reg
file you exported to the Desktop and it'll be added to the registry
again. You can also create a restore point before editing the registry too.

I agree with Elmo in that your problem is most likely caused by a
virus/trojan/spyware of some kind. However I do not support his
suggestion regarding REGEDIT unless you are an experienced user and
are familiar with the risks and potential pitfalls of registry
editing. Instead I suggest that you go to MVP Malke's Malware
