Right click the white area in the directory, click view, click details.
Re-post a screenshot of what it lists.
If still nothing at all, go to Start and type cmd.
It should default to that directory, so type "dir" and hit enter.
It will list all of the files and folders in that directory. Post a screenshot of that also please.

That's the funny thing, you can't right click it, if you do you get no menu or anything, you can't even drag it out of there, its just blank and stuck and have no clue where it came from. Machine is Virus/spyware clean :)

No, no. Don't right click the FILE, right click the white space beneath all of the files :)
Also, try a quick reboot.
P.S. thanks for the cmd screenie, now I am more confused LOL

Click Organize > Folder and Search options > View Tab
Check to see if you are showing hidden files or not, if so, choose do NOT show hidden files
One more screenshot please, can you hover your mouse over the file to show the same info as the desktop folder in your previous screenshot?

You may try safe mode, try modifying the file there. May or may not work, I do not know.
