Author Many (> 500) 256k .tmp files appearing in c:\winnt\temp folder

I have found that I can delete the ones, for example,
from 9/22/02, but not the ones from 9/29/02, as I will
get the error. Thus far, I am not getting into problems
due to these, but they must be attended to. We ran the
ESEUTIL /d utility to defrag and compact our store
recently, and it ran to completion, so that hasn't been
the problem.
