Hi,
I had found thumb.db in my many image folders, is it a virus?, I had scanned with AVG free and the result is "No visus found". So what is the Thumb.db , that was not created by me.
no it isn't , it's the image cache that Windows XP generates .
Yeah, more details on it here.

It's a compressed Image cache generated by Windows XP. So next time you load
the same folder, the Image thumbnails, which are already stored in 'thumbs.db'
load the Image thumbnails almost immeditely from from the file. You can disable
Windows caching thumbnails from the 'Folder Options'. If you do that ,everytime
Image thumbnails are created & it's pretty slow!!.
