I doubt tracking is possible, but you should improve your protection by 
having the firewall in the system activated. See Filesharing in your 
System preferences.

As somebody else said: Could you describe why you think this?

There is (has been) a Word macro(?)-virus that could take frases and 
dokuments and _copy_ the content and send it as email to people in your 
addressbook. I have only seen this in PC, but if it is a Macrovirus 
then it could teoretically be a possibility in Mac too. So if people in 
your addressbook have alerted you of receiving odd files from you, that 
  could be it, but I have never heard that the file in question will be 
_deleted_ only copied.

Another possibility is that you actually have got virus in your Mac. If 
you then are using Virex, the DotMac supplied antivirusprogram, and 
have choosen the alternative that Virex should delete files it can't 
repair, then you will have deleted files. :-(

Sounds like you are using or have been using Norton Antivirus (or 
DiskDoctor) in OS X. You will have to try and uninstall and clean your 
system from all Norton and Symantec files.

Maybe there is more program using Kextd, but I recognize it as a 
problem some of my customers have had with Norton.
