Unwanted folders on D: drive

[hansen_dk]

Hey guys.

I'm getting a TON of unwanted folders on my D: drive. They're named like this MSIxxxxx.tmp where xxxxx = numbers and letters

And yes, they are accessible folders with an .extension added to their name, however there is absolutely nothing inside the folders.

When googling all I have been able to find is some way to remove them with a tool called "Disk Cleaner", but that is not what I want, I want them to stop coming!

Besides the MSI folders I'm also getting folders named _544069_ with various numbers inside the foldername, I have not been able to find any information about these folders though.

If ANYONE has a suggestion to how I can stop either of these folders from being created I would be very happy since I get annoyed everytime i visit my D: drive..

oh btw. I'm running Windows Vista 32bit UK on a HP "vista certified" laptop and I use MS office and a lot of other applications daily.

Thanks in advance

Henrik Hansen
