It's probably not a virus, but ya never know 
On your desktop, you should have the folder that you created along with a .htm file of the same name.
You don't have the .htm currently open or used in a shortcut or anything do you?
I assume, you've already done the basic part of logging off and back on and trying to delete the file and folder, and/or rebooting and doing the same steps...
