355955 2005-07-30 21:18:00 The reason the thread starter has them reapearing after a boot is because they only deleted the amount that could be displayed on the desktop,after a reboot it re-aranges all the files on the desktop,meaning another 100 or so of the more then one thousand files are displayed where the user can see them.(thay can be deleted easily)

The main part that makes it bollucks is that there is no reason in the world for Nero to be making a database just to rip a few mp3's.

355956 2005-11-26 05:50:00 I know this is an old thread but I've just discovered 2581 .IDX files on Yoda. Additionally I had just spent the previous half hour deleting more of them until it occured to me that the damned things were breeding. :horrified

So I found this thread. Yoda incidentally is the powerhouse mainframe Metla built for me and going extremely well. :thumbs: XP.

Anybody know anything more about the pesky things? Am going to try Joe's suggestion.

The thing is, I seldom use Nero. All of the .idx files appear to be music related.
