Every time a new file is created in my documents a
thumbs.db (data base) icon appears in that file. I have
tried deleting them from each individual file but they
come back again when the computer is restarted. Is there
a way of removing the existing ones and preventing any
more from appearing? I would appreciate any help with
this one.

Thanks

I believe it is related to Windows Explorer, Tools,
Folder Options, View, "Do Not Cache Thumbnails". Make
sure the box is checked.
