Magic number 48, thank you generous sir

I'm not sure if this has anything to do with OSBot, but linking the timestamps together it seems like the most plausible guess. For some reason I seem to find tons of random 24 byte .dat files in my home directory, they're formatted like so: [uppercase md5 hash].dat Does anyone know why these are popping up and what they're for? They seem to just contain random binary crap. Thanks for the help. Example of what my home directory looks like: hostname:~ Username$ ls -l total 216 -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 14 23:58 013B7C6D260F2F184AA31F869B339D5C.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 17:22 040E35483D0E77EC5150849224803BF1.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 21:52 0B21DFB008D533ADDD871D02CD763B24.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Nov 1 13:02 1E0755FC7B3E0B243E93E369BFDE47B5.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 20:25 2BA96FF3976F4068A00719041A60B4C0.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 19:36 4EA9320FC8112C60271B756FB27D9AA6.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 20:52 51304A38B36724DC66655D8B02E770DB.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 14:57 59FD4A472346A86736EF5599F6695714.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 21:15 6510418B27CBD0526F352E273A9C6465.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 13:13 7A1920D61156ABC05A60135AEFE8BC67.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 15:21 959A51A0777CD608BE4B82DAAE5A79A4.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 15:46 A8310E5CB13828145EE84640AA6F724F.dat drwx------ 7 Username staff 238 Dec 1 22:35 Applications -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 14:46 BC095AFB925F481F9E6A316AA67C9E4D.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 17 12:29 C42377796D72696FC41BF7591D6714AB.dat drwx------+ 7 Username staff 238 Dec 19 23:18 Desktop drwx------+ 13 Username staff 442 Dec 16 18:59 Documents drwx------+ 21 Username staff 714 Dec 19 18:39 Downloads -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 20:08 E71A47C8E18101F129AB8B3E9AD07F0A.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 19:19 F108D1502B207CFBAB5F8904326E20F0.dat -rw-r--r-- 1 Username staff 24 Dec 19 21:41 F3CBDEA0D00A4113008B7FEF6C362CB4.dat drwx------@ 76 Username staff 2584 Sep 28 15:06 Library drwx------+ 22 Username staff 748 Dec 19 14:07 Movies drwx------+ 18 Username staff 612 Dec 2 12:18 Music drwx------+ 51 Username staff 1734 Dec 16 12:41 Pictures drwxr-xr-x+ 5 Username staff 170 Sep 23 14:22 Public
