Windows XP has a habit of filling any folders which happen to contain
images with a Thumbs.db file, marked as hidden. (Since I'm guessing a
USB stick would be FAT-formatted, the "hidden" attribute is available.)
This files can become large is a folder contains many images, or just if
there's a lot of folders so all the files add up.
Alternatively, maybe K3b means files starting with "." (assuming you
have any), as Jim suggested.
