    Recycler is the part of Recycle Bin which is used for the drive where Recycler is located. And perhaps, System Volume Information is the backup folder for System Restore. Well, sometimes this backup is infected by virus.

    When i install my windows, i got:
    boot.ini
    hiberfil.sys
    ntdetect.com
    ntldr
    pagefile.sys

    These are common hidden files. Still if it bugs you scan your computer ;)
    Something to remember...
