Mauricio,

AIDE only cares about things that you configure it to care about. If
you don't want it to bother with those files, you should exclude them
from the AIDE config.

In addition, AIDE doesn't create those files when run. They are
probably being created by the cron job or wrapper script that your OS
includes in the AIDE package.

Best of luck,

Keith Constable
