Hey all
Am after either some help or reassurance as to some files I have noticed hidden on my desktop.
I have a workhorse of an Emac thats been good and faithfull for ages now, but recently ive been seeing far more of the spinning color wheel of death than I should. I thought id localized this problem to a Firewire harddrive which seems to hang the stystem, so the harddrive remains off when I dont need it. The system is running Tiger and has all the latest updates.
Ok, so the problem. I have found some file folders on the desktop that I have never noticed before- the strage ting is that you can only see/access them through Dreamwevers open/insert menu. They dont show up on Finder and I have typed their exact names into spotlight and it refuses to acknowledge them. The folders and files are named as follows-
FOLDERS-----ENCLOSED FILES
.BAH175
.BAH177
.BAH188-----.BC.6REaS2
.BAH209
.BAH258
.BAH452-----.BC.FYyhGH
Is this normal? Im either thingking that ive set Dreamweaver to deep scan system files or they are some sort of Trojan/Malware.
Im worried as to what to do, I cant even open the files in dreamwever or any other program. Google comes up with no results either so Im stumped. Can anyone shed any light on this?
