Does SP2 need them?

Having searched under Temporary Internet Files - I have opened the
Windows\system32\config\ one and found within a folder entitled Content.IE5
This contains over 4300 files in 4 coded sub folders, almost all of them
ending
with .XML, dated last year and now compressed. At 18MB of disk space
does anybody know the answer to these questions:
Does SP2 need them?
What purpose are they stored there for?
Can these folders/files be deleted?

Please don't confuse this folder with the one where Temporary Internet files
&
cookies are stored.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Ying.
