Do not remove this file. The e-mail is a virus hoax, designed for users to remove a legitimate windows file from their computer.

I'll get you a link that says the same....

For one thing most Anti-virus companys do not send e-mails in reguards to virused files. That's what live updates and reports are for. I've never been contacted by "Norton" unless I first contacted them for help. Don't pay any attention to these type of e-mails.
