I just noticed my internet connection was really slow, so I signed off with the intention to log back on to a better connection. As soon as I logged off, an alert popped up saying, "C:Documents And SettingsBEELocal SettingsTEMPojgs3who.zip could not be saved because the source file could not be read."
I located this file, clocking in at 4mb. I did not choose to download this file. What's going on? Anyone know?

probably one of those advertisments or programs that download to your computer when you go certin sites....but scan it with a virus scanner.

worst case situation is it could be a trojan or worm...but, i seriously doubt it.
hive is probably right...like that annoying gator shit that infects your system.
i would just delete it and then run a full scan of your system.
if possible, use a file wiper app to shred it, that way it doesn't still reside on the drive.
you can find good free space/file wipers at cnet's download.com.
