a programme or is it something that has been created by someone using my
computer? i have found it in w media player & in "my documents". do i delete

Obviously it's used by media player. And it would seem that deleting it is not
a problem either since it recreated itself often enough.
And if it complains, I'd guess just about anyone can create a zero byte length
file even with no programming experience.
