Hello,
Recently went to a website (TomsHardware) via Chrome 57.0.2987.133, and two random files (FILE) automatically downloaded to my Downloads folder, both labeled USNC, both less than 1KB in size - One was 200 bytes in size, the other 800 bytes in size.
I uploaded both to VirusTotal, no prior uploads mentioned, with information showing they were likely plain text files. Scanning the files with MBAM didn't come up with anything.
The site they were downloaded from showed up as Clean Sites on VirusTotal:

I've since deleted the files, and have run scans from a few different AVs including MBAM with clean results.
I'm wondering if anyone could assist with any insight as to what could have happened?
Thank you very much in advance.
