could be music downloads.

try deleting it again.

then change your temp
environments to help manage
the temp files and folders.

first created c:\temp

then change your current tmp
and temp files location to the
c:\temp

click on controlpanel>system>
advance>environment variables

modify both user and system
temps.

also, might as well change
your current internet temp
folder to the c:\temp directory
too.

then hold off on rebooting.

next, initiate a clean boot
by clicking on start>msconfig.

go to startup tab and disable
all your startups.

you might want to jot down
what they are.

next go to services tab and
"hide" all microsoft services.

then disable what remains
on the list.

jot these down too.

then reboot the machine.

if that file no longer appears
in your c:\temp folder and
or your disk maintains
free space,

then something you disabled
from msconfig likely attributed
to the problem.

you will have to figure out which
program is the problem and
also consider which startup and
services you disable should be
re-enabled.
