If you play Spider Solitaire, then it's probably that game's save game file. If the file seems to be in more than one directory, then you probably have the Bugbear virus. Do a virus scan.

'My Document' is the spider's home 
If you see a spider anywhere else, swat it, for it's a virus pretending as a spider. Also, the virus one has the extension spider.sav.exe or .scr

Let me say it again, Spider.sav in 'my documents' is harmless. If u find the file elsewhere with an executable extension like spider.sav.exe, then it is a virus infection.
