Nautilus use gam_server to identify  when a new file is created on
hard-disk, and automatically updates the thumbnail.

	$ ps -A|grep gam
	 2692 ?        00:00:00 gam_server


Alternatively , you can remove all thumbnails 

	$ rm -rf ~/.thumbnails


I vaguely remember, someone did mention on planet gnome ( i believe )
about a utility to remove only invalid thumbnails . Check on
gnomefiles.org , it might help , though not sure.
