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://hintofsarcasm.com/2006/01/12/sky-by-broadband 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 _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list [email protected] http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
