That is just some temporary folders that RHIDE uses for swapping (or so I
guess). Just like some Windoohs programs which leave files with strange
names and a '.tmp' extension in the windows/temp folder. You can safely
delete them - personally I've set up my autoexec.bat file so they're killed
everytime I reboot.

Oh, in case you don't know: swapping is when a program has run out of
physical RAM and thus have to use the harddisk as a kind of 'virtual'
RAM...

I hope this'll help a wee bit,
