That seems like 'dot files', these are files stored on the 26GB parittion and contain your settings for various applications.

If you uninstall this application again it means you will NOT lose any settings, hence why they are not deleted (same happens in Linux - which means I can re-install the whole OS and re-install the applications and all my settings are saved!). If you want to delete it just remove it using the command line, like this:

Code:
cd MyDocs
rm -rf .toMotko
