*.parsed files?

I may have commited some kind of kobo-boo-boo here...

I was messing around with how many books the kobo can actually hold and so I web searched for epub books (wow there are quite a few ebooks out there) and then I looked for free pdf books on the web (I ran a batch convert through calibre to get them to epub format) and then copied up several hundered books to my kobo. As a USB device the windows showed that 886mb full on the Kobo.

Then after unplugging the kobo it took a VERY long time to process. In fact it almost drained the fully charged battery. But it worked and I had some fun skimming through the books. So having had a my fun I plugged the kobo into my computer and deleted the books folder that I had set up.

BUT, windows still shows the Kobo USB as 412mb used. ???

Turns out that the kobo has 31117 'folder_title_file format.parsed' files in a folder called .kobo\images and they take up about 278 mb.

I am not sure what I should do with these files.

Any thoughts?
