Strange files appearing ....

That the best I can describe the problem:  Strange X files (theme song) appearing from out of the blue ... or would you believe - I have no freaking idea where they are coming from!

The latest is: sedlS1Anm
How did I find it?

The same way I found the other mysterious X-Files that are now gone, trying to backup my system:

 06 Feb 17 @ 15:41:12 ~
  $ s11bk
Syncing /home     to /media/sector11/disk/S11-Feb/
Syncing /media/5/ to /media/sector11/disk/M5/
rsync: send_files failed to open "/media/5/Conky/images/3d/sedlS1Anm": Permission denied (13)
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1183) [sender=3.1.1]

1. Syncing Complete
2. Unmount /media/sector11/disk? (Y|n)

  $ ls -lisan /media/5/Conky/images/3d/sedlS1Anm

  $ 

I remove the file and my backup runs just fine until it finds another X-File!

Re: Strange files appearing ....

^  Such files I have also and they hang with a wrong application of sed. 

While editing a file in place, sed creates a temporary file, saves the result and then finally mv the original file with the temporary one.

The problem is that you don't have write permission in the directory where sed is trying to create the temp file.

As the file is ./sedPFq4Ck, check the permission of the directory where you are running the find command.
