I was...well doing too many things at once and now have 2 files on my desktop, both titled

desktop

they don't appear to be shortcuts
and both read

[LocalizedFileNames]
Windows Media [email protected]:\WINDOWS\inf\unregmp2.exe,-4

I went to move them into a folder and got the message

Are you sure you want to move the system file "desktop"
which I took as a hint not to, any ideas as to where these belong, and since they are identical, I doubt I need both. I would like to either put them where they belong or just delete them.

Thanks

unregmp2.exe is the update utility for Windows Media Player, but could also be a worm/virus. Follow these instructions to install XoftSpy (free spyware remover) http://labs.paretologic.com/spyware.aspx?remove=Unregmp2

it doesn't seem to be a worm, neither spysweeper...microsoft's beta anti spyware program, nor spybt seem to have any problems with it...I think I inadvertently right clicked media player when I was trying to close down several programs....I'm just not certain where this file belongs...
