Trend Micro Hlog files

Hi all:
This one has me baffled. I have a windows 2003 server running exchange and installed wth the Trend Micro corporate suite. The server is very slow while the processer and memory are OK to handle the load. I noticed A LOT of hard drive activity even whole very little is going on. I came upon the Hlog fold in Trend Micro tree. I have never see nmore files in one folder before. I did a Dir command and wrote it to a text file to see what was there. I stop the process when the text file got to 500MB in size. with the file I found that 1M of these little log files had been created in a 3 month period earlier this year and appear to still being created. I shutoff al TM services and processes, but it still looks like they are being created. Even if I delete a block of them, the drive space available doesn't change. The files are 372KB each.
Anyone know what these files are and how I can go about turning off that loggin at least so I can get a handle on what's going on.dir
Sample log file attatched.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry: I would swear I closed this question. Found the source of the ogs and stopped the appraopraite services.
Just wanted to post that I had this same problem and this the only post that has come up in a search of this issue.  I was able to stop the trend micro services and then delete the HLog folder.  It took many many hours to delete the folder as there were millions of files in that folder.  I then uninstalled/reinstalled the trend micro client and the issue appears to be resolved now.
