These can safely be deleted if you don't want them. If you're using Firefox, these are probably located in C:\Users\"YourUserName"\Downloads\..? ("YourUserName" is to replace whatever your account name is..) To select more than one, use the drag option by left clicking and holding down the click until you have selected the ones you wish.
Probably best to clear your temp files as well.
Next we'll clean up your temporary internet files and such.
Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.

Thanks, I downloaded the program and it deleted a lot of them. Do I need jpg files that start with Cop95, Cop98, etc. or can I delete these?

Try this program now and see if it cleans anymore of them out.
Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop

- Please double-click TFC.exe to run it. (Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator).
- It will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin.
- Click the Start button to begin the process. Depending on how often you clean temp files, execution time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two. Let it run uninterrupted to completion.
- Once it's finished it should reboot your machine. If it does not, please manually reboot the machine yourself to ensure a complete clean.

Just out of curiosity, would you mind giving a location of these files? It may give us ideas on how to better get rid of them, since the temporary file cleaners tend to clear out some of them..
Just right click one of the pics, (Cop98 or whatever) and choose properties. When the box pops up, it will show the location of the file, by filename. Copy and paste that here if you could.. double clicking the filename will highlight it.
