Hi Wannabe A+ :-)
~ Tilde sign on desktop:
It is a glitch in an MS patch. It is just a backup of OE your address book.
You may find one in C:\Windows as well. It is nothing to worry about. Just
rename the extension to .wab and you will see that is all it is. It usually
appears after you have added a new name or changed any details in your
address book. See here for further information:

and

If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.
Hope this helps
Jan :)
