Photoshop Folders with strange titles

[megaevelie]

Before saving a photo edited from Photoshop, I noticed a folder titled '20120418-225055' and when I opened it, it contains another folder 'Ut0L2GN0THuEuuD20Qhe7w', and then I soon hopped from one folder to another more folders entitled that way appeared. All are under iPhotoLibrary ---> Database -----> Versions -----> 2012.

Are these folders for real or just some folders created by a virus? Thanks a lot for helping!

I moved your post to here (OS X Apps) from the Switcher forum and edited your title for clarity.

Since there are no Mac viruses in the wild, it isn't a virus. I don't know what caused those folders with the strange names to appear since I do not use Photoshop. Perhaps they're temp files, but that's just a guess. Someone else should be able to help. Stay tuned.

Thank you so much! I'll stay tuned.
