Hello, I'm (simply) a member of the sqlite mailing list.

As you probably know, it is not sqlite itself that is creating these files, but 
some program on the system which incorporates sqlite -- and we have no *direct* 
way of determining what program that is.

I googled briefly and found the following two links which may well be relevant 
regarding the BBC's iPlayer and the service Kservice.exe:

http://www.techsupportforum.com/microsoft-support/windows-xp-support/451685-massive-sqlite-temp-files-filling-hard-drive-help.html

If the symptom described in the above links does not fit your situation, 
perhaps I could suggest:

1) Downloading one of the many sqlite GUI front-end programs, and see if either 
the column/table names, or the data values themselves give you some hints as to 
what program may be at fault.

2) If #1 is beyond your capabilities, you might take one of the smaller sqlite 
files, compress it, and email it to me directly, and I will make a quick 
look-see.

Perhaps others on this mailing list have better suggestions.

Hope this helps,
   Donald Griggs

I'd suggest Anita uses a file monitoring app (like SysInternals'
DiskMon, if she's using Windows) to see what is writing those files.
Then stop the app from doing it.

Nick.
