I have this too, it is called doctemp and is on the C drive. It contains,
for me, a folder called edoc0, this contains gif files and html files.
These are useless things like how to personalize your desktop and what to do
if your computer stops responding. Total size is 81.7KB for me.

Re: delete doc temp files in vista

Must be specific to some program. I don't have that on any of my Vista
installations.
