So off i go into safe mode and run a full scan with norton, and nothing is found... it seems the file is only created when i run ad-aware. is something i should be worried about? if so what is causing it? i would also like to point out that all defs are up to date, and i have nothing in any quarentines.

Using Sun's Java?
 
If so it sounds like a virus in your java cache and clearing the cache should fix it.
