Ended up dumping the folder somewhere I will never look for it!
This was a problem has been fixed in version 2.6.1

To remove those temp directories follow the steps below

1) Open a command prompt
2) Navigate to the temp directory.
C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\Local Settings\Temp\BookCreatorTemp
// Replace <your user name> with ... your user name.
3) GET DOS 8.3 NAME by runing the command blow
dir /x /a

4) Remove Directory using DOS 8.3 name
RD /S /Q "DOS 8.3" NAME

// Note the "DOS 8.3" represents the old dos filenames
