Tmp files/folders in C:\Windows\Temp
I was recently looking in C:\Windows\Temp and found many (hundreds) of folders in this directory. These folders each contains a file called "tmp00000000", these files are zero length.
The folders in Windows\Temp are all in the form "tmp00000xxx" or "tmp0000xxxx", where xxx/xxxx appears to be a hexadecimal number, eg. "tmp00000a78". I can see no pattern indicating when they are created other than some seem to be created shortly after a boot but others are not related to a boot.
I have Bullguard installed and get no viruses reported.
Any ideas of what is causing this or how to track down the cause?
Thanks
