Yes, they are created when a program crashes.

The command to configure this depends on the shell you're using.
Googling for "disable core dumps linux" gave me: 
http://www.unixguide.net/linux/faq/07.14.shtml

Assuming you're using bash you need to use the ulimit command: 

ulimit -c THE_MAX_SIZE_YOU_WANT

There's no separate man page for the ulimit command. 
If you're interested in the documentation take a 
look at the man page of bash, for example by typing
#bash in the location bar of konqueror or man bash 
on the command line. 

HTH,
Christian.
