    What would cause a file (0 bytes) name to keep appearing in my Download File Folder, even after deleting it in every way I know how. It goes in my Recycle Bin and I empty that only to have the file pop in again the next time I turn the PC on. I have searched my registry for the name but come up empty.

    Does this file have a name?
    Please go to User CP near the top left of this page and fill out your System Specs and be sure to SAVE them. Helps up to help you.

    If the name of the file is Desktop.ini you'll need to go into Win Explorer->Tools->Folder option and "hide" system files.

    I believe My System is loaded. The file name was Cyberware/Regzooka. I changed it and deleted it. It has now disappeared. Thanks for you help.
