these large tmp files are in C:\windows\Temp. Some of the file names are DST199.tmp, DST146.tmp, DST15A.tmp.. etc... Last week they were each half a GB in size.. after the latest reboot. they are now 1GB in size. I'd say the rate the last i checked was about 2MB every second. Once the tmp file gets to a 1GB it makes a new one. I run process monitor and see that it's store.exe that is involved. IISRESET will clear them.. but they just start up again in no time.
