Thumbs.db files are the little shits WindowsXP makes for folders set to the "thumbnails" view. As far as I know, just make sure your folders aren't set to thumbnail view, or make sure that in Tools->Folder Options->View it is set to show all files (including protected operating system files if necessary) and then just delete the file yourself.
