How big your Media card??

576 is not a big file... it's what .5 MB??

I do not know what it is so I can not advise in deleting this.

You should be able to see if it's on the media card. Are you looking at it with Windows Explorer, or with Media Manager?

How do you get to it? There has to be some kind of path. Like J:\ where J is the drive letter. Like the hard drive is usually C:\

Edit... are you doing this on your Mac? I googled part of the file name, spotlight-v100, and got some results.

I don't know what to tell you about deleting it. It may be something your Mac is creating because I've never seen anything like that on my pc and I have hidden files/folder set to show. I suppose you could delete it as long as there is an option to restore it in case something goes wrong.
I have a hunch if you delete it, it will be created again, but maybe not.

i looked at the google results and the first article does apply to my situation cuse i do some time swap between PC and MAC so it makes sense that it is the indexing of the spotlight program from my mac to the memory card.
thanks for your help
