Thanks maxxer. I eventually found a lot more files containing f-spot
references and deleted them after first uninstalling f-spot. In my
ignorance, it seemed obvious that complete un-installation of f-spot
would get rid of all associated files but of course that did not happen.
A pity because every time I reinstalled I automatically added the files
to the earlier thumbnails and ended up with a mess of thousands of
duplicate files. Now I'll leave well alone!

Thanks again,

John.
