If a file is persistently being placed on your external removable sd card, it likely is being generated by something in your app or widget library (likely Google related).

I'd go through all apps and widgets related to media and clear cache and data. Then I'd remove and format the sd card via adaptor or reader on my PC. I'm not sure if I'd back up the sd card's contents because there's the possibility that when restoring the data you might import the problem back onto the card. That's up to you.
