I found two folders in my Hard Disk yesterday - I have no idea where they came from. One of them is named "found.000" and the other one "found.001". They both contain folders named "dir0000.chk", "dir0001.chk" etc. and the dir folders contain various files. Some of those seem familiar, but most of them don't (and I don't know whether they're just system files I'd never seen, or something else).

Does anyone know what they could be? I'm thinking they could be files chkdisk recovered from my last hard drive failure (which was a few months ago), because the folders have this .chk extension plus I found stuff like Outlook files, and Outlook has stopped working since that HD failure (not that it worked well to begin with anyway, but still). But, for all I know, I may have a virus or something.

Thanks,
