"Boot OS X" Folder appearing on desktop

[Bunker]

I have got this weird things happening.

A folder call "Boot OS X" will suddenly appear on my desktop, screenshot as follow:

When double click on it, it does not open.

When I reboot my Mac, it disappears.

Sometimes, I can get a few of those folders on my desktop until I reboot.


Been searching the forum without much information. Anyone can shed some light on this behavior?

I am on Snow Leopard, and this started before I upgrade to Snow Leopard.

Im getting "삔" folders on my HD 1.

And before you say dodgy software:

Two points:
1. I don't have ANY pirated software
2. I only have apple update software installed, so its something apple update related 😕
(Clean installation, no additional software)

Are you using PGP encryption?

Are you using PGP encryption?

Yes.

Which version? The Boot OS X partition is where pgp places it's pgpboot.efi (as well as Apple's). Why it's showing up as a volume, I'm not sure. You might want to look on the PGP forums for an answer.
