   I use sq386n.exe, called from a CMD file by Argus running in Win XP.

   I noticed them quite some time ago.  Now that the line in my batch
   file immediately after the call to sq386n reads
*del /q *.lng
   I no longer notice them -- they go poof as soon as they get here.

   As I recall, it was because of a message in the STATS echo that was
   posted periodically by someone -- don't recall exactly who.   I think
   that the files often ran in excess of 100KB.
