What OS are you running Win XP? What anti-virus, anti-spy-ware and/or other anti-malware programs are you running?
We sort of NEED this info in order to be able to help you PROPERLY...........
In the mean time, UPDATE and RUN all your anti-malware progs. If you don't have any then go to http://www.download.com and get Avast Anti-virus, Spybot Search & Destroy and AdAware by Lavasoft. Install them, UPDATE them and RUN them.

if it is a JPG, it is more than likely album art and you can just ignore it. Most things like that are to small to make a difference or take up alot of missed space so i wouldnt worry about it, if its undeletable.

try this, go to start, click help, go to system restore, and restore your computer to the day before it happened. That might get rid of it
