I've gone to websites to search for these files, I've searched on Google and gone to the Norton Antivirus website but can't find any help with these files that occasionally show up on my root directory C:/. The files have the extension .--j. They are sequentially numbered as follows: Phile001.--j, Phile002.--j, etc. all the way up to Phile222.--j. These are huge in size ranging from 30 megs up to 2 gigs in size. Needless to say, they eat up all my hard drive space. The first time they appeared I did all the research I could to try and find out what they were and how they got there, but to no avail. Subsequently, I just deleted them and the problem seemed to be solved. But after a couple of weeks they appeared again, exactly as before, same names, same number of files, same sizes. Anybody got a clue how I can rid myself of this problem? I am computer functunally illiterate so I don't understand much about computers.
Thanks if anyone can help.
