It's not a virus, it's your paging file or virtual memory. It compliments your RAM by using hard drive space as more memory

no its not a virus. its a valid windows file. it is an extension to the RAM in ur computer. used to store additional info abt programs that u are running a a given point of time. just a temporary space.
