When I switched my KVM over to my HS machine this AM, windows popped up a low free disk space error. It said I only had something like 30MB free, from a 40 Gig drive.
Hadn't really viewed this machine in several weeks, started thinking about what it could be. Thought maybe HS was logging traffic and started looking for the HS log file. (never did find it)
But clicking on the HS temp folder, it was 11.3 Gigs with 123,975 files!!!
Seemed to all be url_temp# starting at 0 up to ? Looking at random files from #0 to up to 10,000 and someting, the were all 95.4KB in size and had a creation date of 10/31/04 starting at 11:25am and seemed to be about 60 - 70 of them per minute!!!! (no wonder I ran low on HD space!)
I renamed the temp folder, created a new temp folder, then deleted the original (and dumped the recycle bin also)
Oops, forgot to look at the file content before deleteing!!
Any idea what caused this, and how to prevent it in the future? ( I know to ask a question like this I should have reported the file contents so you would have some decent info to respond to. I was just so shocked, I deleted without thinking)
