I get what appears to be self replicating cookie folders/files in my ‘Explorer’ program (not Internet Explorer). Here is how they are listed ….
C

windows\localsettings\Temporary Internet files\content IE.5\
The following folders branch from “\content IE.5\” file ……
8ly7olyz[lists cookies]
Ggbz77jx ditto
L2flhyo4 ditto
Q9jomj9k ditto
Each folder has the same identical list of cookies
When I delete each one, I get informed “This folder is a system folder and windows or another program may no longer work correctly. I usually delete back to [not including] the IE.5 file without any problems.
The frustrating part is that these “deleted” folders reappear in my ‘Explorer program after I use Internet Explorer.
How can I stop these folders from reappearing? And/or why do they appear?
Any advice or comments would be appreciated.
