Well,
when a batch is executed, it usually writes the path of the batch file and the command.
You can test it by:
With @echo off you won't get the path of the batch file, therefore its more difficult to find out, what is causing it:
Code:
@echo off
echo test
pause
For this simple flood, it might be useless, but with more complex batches, it comes in handy
EDIT: just came to my mind. Also, you can use the > nul command

Basically it will hide whats going on
Example:
Code:
@echo off
echo test
pause > nul
