appdata-local-Application Data-Application Data-Application Data infinitum ad nauseum. WHY

appdata-local-Application Data-Application Data-Application Data infinitum ad
nauseum. WHY

Why do I have this never ending folder, link, folder, link that never ends ?
I was able to measure how many bytes are in it, over 37 gigs.

Is this why Vista is so slow ? it has to span 70-100 folders just to findthe
config settings for the applications ?

I know it repeats itself more than 10 times. the 70-100 I hope is an
exaggeration. But it's like looking into a mirror of a mirror. There's noend
to it.

example:

C:\Users\ken\LOCALS~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\APPLIC~1\Application
Data\Application Data..

I just got bored but it goes on and on and on. The folder itself shows 0bytes
using properties, but using total commander it shows over 37 gigs. The link's
properties is a whole different thing.
All of the folders no mattter how many, were created 22 minutes ago. IOW : when
I opened the local settings folder.
