Ever since I have Windows 7 I noticed that thousands of temporary internet files are being created. In particular I noticed a true epidemy of random .kmz files, none of them actually haing been used by me.
Is there a cure?
have you been using google earth?
that's where the .kmz files are coming from, as far as i know.
You can cleanup temporary internet files with the inbuilt disk cleaner or a 3rd party tool like CCleaner. CCleaner can be scheduled to clean up automatically too.
.kmz files are zipped files used by google earth.
You may be using the extention and not kow it File Extension KMZ
