%99 percent they are the tables in the recycle bin

If you drop a table without purge statement Oracle Keeps it in recycle bin

The right statement for passing the recyclebin is

Drop table xxx purge;

If you want to disable all the recyclebin operation

for 10g R2

alter system set recyclebin=off;

for 10g R1 --the parameter is undocumented

alter system set _recyclebin=false;

For viewing the contents in recyclebin you can use

show recyclebin
or
select * from user_recyclebin

to purge all the deleted for only one schema

purce recyclebin;

to purge all the deleted for all schemas (must be sysdba)

purce dba_recyclebin;
