what program you use to listen to music?

most of the music programs have a default folder were music is saved, if you delete the folder, the music player just remakes it, even if it doesnt have anything to put in it


You have to go into the player (s) that you use and change the default folder to something else.

Also this happens with P2P programs, all stuff downloaded is by default going to appear in the folder. When you delete the folder, and run the programs, it makes the new folder

Nothing is safe from a determined human.

i use limewire pro to get my music, and i use WMP 10 to play it. i put the music on my desktop or my music, and it comes up with files called albumart, which are the album covers of the music. you know when you cut a file? it goes pale? the files are like that all the time.

EDIT: Heres what they look like, i took a screenshot.

Limewire is a peer-to-peer filesharing program, and therefore is not to be discussed on here. Such programs to tend to cause your PC to fill up with spyware and other junk, and all I can advise is that you uninstall it and obtain your music legitimately. I'm sorry, but you cannot be helped here.
