WF4 export to ACAD

We've got a couple of people here asking why in the world Pro/E creates a load of 1Kb .jpgs when saving a WF4 drw file to an ACAD2007 file format. It does this prior to the Export Environment for DWG box appearing. I hadn't noticed the issue because Pro/E cleans these files up after the .dwg is created (normally). One person navigated to their working directory while waiting for the Export Environment screen to appear and they noticed there were over 1300 of these 1Kb jpgs. These jpg names seem to be tied to the colors.

Anyone else observe this behavior and if so is there a fix? These guys work across our network and sometimes it gets very slow (even though IT says it's fine).

Thanks,

I noticed this but it does not bother us here because we are exporting to a local directory and then we do whatever we need to do with the AutoCad File once it is created.
