Hi:
 
You may already be aware of the program (free version) A squared, a spyware hunter program finding the 2 subject files.   A squared's home page is http://www.emsisoft.com/en/  They have a full version you pay for.  I just use A squared as a safety factor.  It classified them as traces--whatever that means.  They have no Help menu in the free version so I could not look it up.  5 cookies were found as well tonight--and THEY were also traces.
 
Just writing in case the above might be of relevance to you.  wumply

Yes, we know this stupid detection of our Advanced Anti Keylogger by A-Squared program. This detection is based on "Keylogger" keyword only found in the file path of our product.
 
Look at explanation from A-Squared web site:
 
<<...Malware-Info: Trace.File
File traces are known file paths of Spyware/Adware. The detection of file traces is only based on the file path, so it is possible that a harmless file which is placed on a known Spyware/Adware location will be detected as well. But usually, harmless files are not stored on known Spyware/Adware locations...>>
 
After renaming of our "Advanced Anti Keylogger" folder name to something other, A-Squared program did find any malware traces  Smiley
