Hi Georges,

Those are normally invisible files that the MacOS puts on a volume.  I suspect 
that your flash media is formatted as MSDOS so no matter how many times you get 
rid of them, they'll simply reappear.  It's just a translation thing.  The only 
way to permanently make them invisible is to format your flash media as a Mac 
partition.

Later…
