So far the only way I have been able to remove this file is by booting in safe mode and deleting it. However, after I updated my cox cable security suite software it came back. I called cox and they said this file is not theirs. However, as usual they blamed everything from Ad Aware to Spy Bot, to XoftSpy (other software I have on my system) for the cox suite not working to catch these files.
   
Found by a squared as possible malware
   
It's part of DesaWare's spyworks suite.
