Tried deleting it?

 

[stranger]

this file does not exist in the folder system23

 

[Praetor]

Wait a sec... System32 or System23?? (cuz u wrote 23 twice)

 

[stranger]

Oh sorry.. it is system32 ..

It could be a remnant of a virus or spyware. Delete the entry in registry that launches it at startup.

sounds like a virus/trojan/spyware...try googling it.

Here's a free spyware scanner

Note: Scanner, not remover. You'll need to register if you want to remove the spyware.
