HB filling my harddisk

[Ilja Rogoff]

Hi everyone Honorbuddy fills the c:\Users\iljarogoff\AppData\Local\ folder with tons of files. may i delete those from time to time or are these necessary for something? Running on Windows7 64

Would you mind telling us which files?

I just looked to see what files are there, they basicly the same as the computer that doesn't have HB installed. So Don't think that this is an issue.

sure, they have very cryptic names, look at the screenshot



it's something like 20000 files

and edit: it is the Temp-subfolder!

Bots are taking over the universe, run while u still can!

Hmm.. could be any program, I only have 3000 files in there at this time which is taking up ~200mb.
and I have two copies of HB running on this machine

no no it is definitely from HB. I peeked into some of the files with a hex editor and and all those files contain lots of text passages like:

/R:"C:\Users\Public\Bots\Honorbuddy.exe" /R:"C:\Users\Public\Bots\Styx.dll" /R:"C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.Windows.Forms\2.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089\System.Windows.Forms.dll" /R:"C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System\2.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089\System.dll" /R:"C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.Drawing\2.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a\System.Drawing.dll" /R:"C:\Users\Public\Bots\fasmdll_managed.dll" /R:"C:\Users\Public\Bots\Styx.Plugins.PluginClass.dll"

Just checked my own AppData\Local\Temp folder and I'm seeing similar behavior. 16,000+ files containing similar strings to what the OP posted, comprising ~246MB in total. I am also using Win7 64.

Wow - you are not kidding - I have over 250k and that is from the last 2 weeks.

Feel free to delete them. Its important we put a delete tmp files over 2 days old rule in.
