BIN files from nowhere

[anjou2]

I have a shortcut to My Docs, there are suddenly a profusion of BIN files appearing when this opens. What are they, do I need to see them all the time and, if not, how do I stop them appearing, I don't remember seeing them previously. Thanks

Hi anjou2,

I have a shortcut to My Docs, there are suddenly a profusion of BIN files appearing when this opens. What are they, do I need to see them all the time and, if not, how do I stop them appearing, I don't remember seeing them previously

Have you installed any new software/updates prior to this happening?
Can you give us an example of the BIN file names!

OK examples:
6011-N.BIN Date modified 04/11/2009 size 105KB
6011-ntl.BIN Date modified 04/11/2009 size 94.0 KB
6011-P.BIN
6011-ptr.BIN
there are many more like these, all these are dated 04/11/2009 @ 13:10
