nautilus/thunar/terminal .... doesn't matter where you view it. it does
not affect nautilus as currently states. more like systemic ubuntu stuff
here

i don't have dropbox, file roller, ubuntu one, nautilus (thunar for me).

`ls -al | grep goutput` gives me this:
-rw-------  1 mdm  mdm        51 May  9 16:34 .goutputstream-2KCWDW
-rw-------  1 mdm  mdm        51 May 10 20:39 .goutputstream-AVK3DW
-rw-------  1 mdm  mdm        51 May 10 02:45 .goutputstream-CAJ7DW
-rw-------  1 mdm  mdm        51 May  7 00:22 .goutputstream-EXDSDW
-rw-------  1 mdm  mdm        51 May  6 19:44 .goutputstream-FV9TDW
-rw-------  1 mdm  mdm        51 May 10 04:28 .goutputstream-GZZYDW
-rw-------  1 mdm  mdm        51 May 11 14:52 .goutputstream-L6OUDW
-rw-------  1 mdm  mdm        51 May  9 15:57 .goutputstream-ODM4DW
-rw-------  1 mdm  mdm        51 May  8 14:25 .goutputstream-RYD1DW
which seems a lot like my computers startup times.. (or was it shutdowns?, i'll 
check it sometime..)

if i run `strings` on any file i get:
<hostname>
MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1
sg]|

all the three lines are the same for all files. I would notice the "DW" on the 
end of each file name. does it have something to do with "doubleword"?
before finding this bug report i was blaming gstreamer for making these files, 
now i'm in doubt. i've had it all the time 12.04, beta 12.04 and 11.10, running 
xubuntu, can't remember about ubuntu
