You might have stumbled across a WordPress.ORG install that had been hacked and malware installed on the site. Without the URL of the site it is difficult to help you much.

Could you be more specific please? What kind of files are downloaded? Do you have the filenames? And have you run an anti-virus scan to confirm if they are viruses as you suspect?

Also advise if you recently downloaded anything new on your computer, such as an add-on bar, a new program, etc.

The files Im talking about can be found at "Downloaded files" in my computer. It NEVER Happens except when I surf at some WordPress blogs.
Yes I tagged it like that, because maybe it is some kind of virus?

This goes straight into the cache memory. Is this what you are talking about?

And why is this forum topic tagged "spy" and "virus"? Did you tag it like that? What makes you think they are that kind of file? Did your anti-virus software issue a warning?

I don´t want them, I don´t do anything to download them - it just happens. They all come from wordpress-blogs. It can be files, pictures or music.
What is this, why and how do I stop it?
