This was also discussed many months ago and somebody copied a vbs script in the 
message that will take care of these zero tmp files. The script is below:

=======================================================
Directory = "C:\Documents and Settings\**user**\Local Settings\Temp"
Keepdays    = 0

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set folder = fso.GetFolder(Directory)
Set files = folder.Files
Set reg = New RegExp
reg.Pattern = "\*.tmp"

today = Date()
For Each file In files
  If (file.DateLastModified < (today - Keepdays) And reg.Test(file.Name)) Then
    file.Delete
  End If
Next
======================================================
Save this info as a .vbs file (without the ====s) in a directory and run it 
automatically when you boot your system. Note that you have to change the 
**user** in the first line. Since I'm using this program, there's only 1 day of 
zero .tmp files in my Temp directory.

Now, this is actually a circumvention as why is TB leaving so many zero tmp 
files behind?
