    Lots of axd-files in server root

    Hi all,
     
    instead of windows file system we store uploaded attachments on our MS SQL Server. Now we've seen a strange phenomena on our IIS:
     
    When a file e.g. a picture is uploaded using CuteEditor a file is created on c:" of the webserver.
    It is named persisted.UniqueID.Filename.axd such as persisted.320d1ce6-6f55-4465-baaa-03ca94576763.Task_27854_Documentation.pdf.axd .
    In a few cases also uploading.UniqueID.Filename.axd such as uploading.039ce3b7-b1d4-4c03-bf2d-46e1f0ead553.75064146_TS.txt.axd .
     
    I've seen here in the forum that the question was raised before but unfortunately not answered: C:\Windows\Temp folder....Also, there are .axd files generated for each upload, as it appears. Is this going to be an issue later on or will this clear out?
     
    1. Could I delete these files manually?
    2. Is there any workaround how to avoid such files?
    Thanks!

    .net Framework 4.0 / ASP.net / VB / CuteEditor 6.7 / SQL 2005
