What is Windoes\Prefetch?

I'm trying to clean up AOL. Uninstall certainly seems to do very little
about that.... And I see a lot of AOL*.pf files there. Is it sort of like a
history file or something? OK to just delete them all? Is this whole
folder AOL instead of Windows?

I unwisely installed AOL so I could have a backup dialup connection when/if
cable went down. Sorry I did. What an imperialistic piece of software!!!
And just try to cancel! They won't do it unless you answer a whole slow of
questions. Or yell for a supervisor as I finally did.
