I've got XP Professional on a recently purchase PC. In the
last week suddenly my main drive (C: 49GB) is fully loaded.
there are 3 mystery files in my C:/windows/Temp folder:

hp26.tmp 25GB
hp1F.tmp 12.3 GB
hpDE.tmp 760 MB

1) I had trouble printing a web page on my HP 600 printer.
Are theses files the result? hp** looks suspicious

2) Can these files be safely removed (deleted)

3) any idea how they got there?

Many thx in advance for any help
