I searched Google, Symantec, Grisoft and Microsoft and found nothing, MIcrosoft considered a spelling error and suggested kidnapped.dll.
That made me think, kbdnap.dll kbd=keyboard nap=sleep is this a power saving function to shut your machine down if it's not in use? or kbd=keyboard nap=kidnapped has someone installed a keylogger on your system?

Viruses often use random letters in attempt to hide the file. A virus scanner will find it not by name but by it's signature. You need to run a system scan, get the virus name and then get removal instructions.
