Hello Dale_Wainwright =)

Seems to be an unknown file, where is it present on the hard drive ??
right click it and check its properties, if you fail to find a Valid information about it then just delete it from the system from safemode, and then run regedit, find its traces and remove them also!
Restart in normal mode and now check if same issue ??

I'm fairly sure it is a new sort of spyware/malware (nothing on google)
go to start -->run and type msinfo32 and go to software environment, startup programs and see if it is listed, also check running tasks

Windows 2000

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
