In Windows Task Manager, I found a file I am not sure about called E_A101C2.exe

Is this a virus or necessary file?

It is not an installed XP file nor could I find any reference to it on a Google search. My gut instinct is to delete it and see what happens. It can always be recovered from the Recycle bin. Deleting it may trigger some other piece of software to stop working any you will have many clues as to the origin.

Doesn't turn up in my Task Manager, or in a Google search.

Probably safe to delete.
