Their names are like the attached picture and they are located in the main folder of the gallery. I don't know know what they contains. they look to my like some temporary files, but they are a too many, I think.
What should I do? Is it ok to delete them?

they are no part of Piwigo, so Piwigo will work without

They're not part of Piwigo and they look very much like an attack on your web hosting :-/

indeed, seems like someone has changed your hosting as a shared hidden server
change all password, especially Ftp and your Cpanel/hosting admin panel
and update all script like pIwigo

Thank you for your friendly advice. I changed the ftp passwords.

One last question regarding the INSTALL directory. Should it be deleted or not? After the instalation, I let the directory as it was. Was that a problem? Now I renamed it so that it cannot be accessed from other users.

Ok. I thought that the folder could be accessed. Anyway I renamed it.
Thanks
