There it sits like a pimple . . . a huge zit . . . growing every time you take that screenshot . . . bigger than a boil . . .Any cure to get rid of Thumbs.db files and stop them from recurring ever again?RegardsTerblanche

Delete it. It is an XP thing. It caches each file in the directory so that you can quickly see them all instead of having each one done live.Go into Folder Options, on the View tab, you will find a "Do not cache thumbnails" Check the option.

Oh - great ... !!Bye Bye thumbs.db !!Thanx:-)
