A file by the name of Colloidal silver.mbx would be the index file for the "Colloidal Silver" mailbox when using Eudora. If you delete this file you will lose your mailbox I believe.
You may want to take a look at this link which I think outlines how to get the index file rebuilt: http://www.cs.nwu.edu/~beim/eudora/eudora-fix-toc.html It is highly unlikely that a virus or worm would have the same name as your index file, especially since index files are not executable. Also I checked the all the emails that have come in over the colloidal silver list for the last 1 1/2 years for that filename and it does not show up in any of them.
