Thunderbird creates these nstmp files.  It takes all my emails and 
duplicates them and takes up a lot of storage.  My laptop is full, I 
need to make sure I delete these.  The other day it created 7 of them.  
Only one is  being contrary and not deleting.
I just found this:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Nstmp_folders

And I found the file to delete:
C:\Documents and Settings\<Windows login/user name>\Application 
Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\<Profile name>\local folders
It was listed there in local folders.
So I deleted it.  Hopefully it will stay gone now.
