I Bought a Mac: Spotlight Tip: Getting Rid Of Windows Files

    Brent, i assume you have all these *db files because you have installed parallels & windows * ?

    Actually no, this was from me pulling my old documents and folders from my old windows machine or my network. But that would do it too, wouldn't it?

    I had the same problem...good post! For the more tech savvy people (more comfortable w/ unix/linux commands), you can open terminal and type this:

    find . -name "Thumbs.db" -exec rm \{} \;

    That'll do the job!
