Internet File - Can't Delete

I have an internet file that won't allow me to delete it.  The file name is perflib_perfdata_69c.DATfile.  Is a virus?  Should delete it and if so, tell me how to do this.
 
Thank you

    The following thread might help you: http://www.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/alt.computer.security/2003-12/0404.html
     
    Apparently it is a performance monitoring file related to motherboard function.  And apparently it is replaced with a new file each time you boot.  But read the whole thread.

    The link should take you to the initial post, a question about files with that name.  Then there are a series of replies to that post, some quuite informative, others not so informative.
