Re: strange file HBEPGUID.TXT

well, it doesn't look too harmful. Judging from the name (HBEPGUID) seems like an ID of some sort along with a MAC address. Maybe they found a new way to set cookies?
I would tend to believe you have something running on your system that checks if the item is there, and if not rewrites it. Open Task Manager and see what is running. Kill any processes you don't know about. Check your startup programs. Most likely there is something in there that starts up with your system. Have you run a HijackThis?
