It's not related to JFW, but I had a couple files and folders like that on 
my old desktop in strange places and I couldn't get rid of them, they didn't 
seem to hurt anything form what I could tell, I think I had 2 files or 
folders on my C drive like that, 1 was in my downloads folder where I put 
all the files I download called ~~6~6~ that would not go away and I couldn't 
delete it, and there might have been another on my desktop now that I think, 
I know there was another one somewhere, I have no clue what it is but it's 
not JFW related.
