Yes, I think that is exactly what it refers to. It is apparently part
of the Vista Windows Color System (WCS) and used for displaying sRGB
files. When I try to delete the file, Windows gives me an error
message saying it is part of the system and cannot be deleted.

The problem would appear to be that it somehow got into the SpyderPro2
list of profiles associated with the monitor, and it is not an
appropriate ICC profile for the monitor, hence the SypderPro error
message. I need to get it out of the SpyderPro list somehow.


In that case, I would suggest right clicking on the desktop of that display, working your way to the advanced display configuration settings, and in the color settings, choosing that profile from the list, and telling it to not associate it. But if its simply sRGB, then its not a "real" display profile (it lacks video card corrections etc) and the warning is simply telling you this.
