Re: Is this a Virus?

use filemon.exe from www.sysinternals.com to see disk io.  This will tell 
you what is writing and where.
To make it easier, shutdown as many programs as possible including av while 
you watch.

I doubt it's a virus.  Filling up a hard-disk is counter productive to 
propagation.  Though I do think it was an option in the VCL of old.
