Thanks joshsiao, Ive cleared the system log but it wasnt the culprit. I clear all my internet activity after every session using Tracks Eraser... so the computer is clean all the time. The count is still growing... i dont think its a major problem... but it does create 8 new files everytime... and it uses an additional 139,264 bytes.
I dont have a lot running on start up.... only desktop, firewall, anitvirus, HotKeysCmds & hpsysdrv.
The strange thing is that these 8 new files dont increase the file count on any of the folders off the C drive. Is like they not there except that they showing on the file count for the defrag analyser.
