I can't swear that it is, but it sure looks like a virus. It is messing
with the registry, and writing to the drive. Delete this and inform
whoever sent it, they may not be aware this is being attached, it seems
to be on a timer. You could delete the attached script without deleting
the rest. You might find www.antivirus.com of interest. Do save a copy
of this in a format that can't be executed, in case you want to show it
to someone later.
