odd file appears on desktop

I have a new machine.  Running WinXP.  every once in a while I see this small file icon appear on my desktop.  It cant find any program to open it and I have tried a few with no success.  It's about 250kb and all it says under the properties tab is (~)  No name or type of file, just the teledyne symbol.  It doesnt seem to appear at any consistant time that I can see.   I have been deleting it and it doesnt seem to hurt anything.  Any suggestions????

it is caused by a small bug in outlook express.. it happens each time you add someone to your address book in oe.. you can delete it..

THANKS.  This one applies and makes me feel a tad more at ease.
