Bear,
In the TEMP folder it is safe to delete all files
You may notice that files starting with '~' (tilde) may not be deleteable as
they are in-use by Windows

My /Documents & Settings/user id/Local Settings/TEMP folder contains a
lot of files. I would like to clean it out a bit to speed up the
Antivirus checking. What files can I safely delete:
1. All files of type 'tmp' ?
2. All files with names starting with '~' (tilde) or 'TEMP' ?
3. All empty folders?
4. All zero length files?
5. Log files that have not been updated in the last month or more?
6. *.JPD files (no idea what these are)?
7. *.jPG files (why are all these thumbnails in here?)
8. Any *.dlls? Why are these in here?
9. Any *.exe files? Why are these in here?
10.*.MSP (in this case, Windows Installer patch files - why are these
big files here?
11.*.DAT files?
12.*.MST files? (what are these?)
13.*.CNT files? (what are these?)
14,Files which look like CLSID files?
Any advice and warnings would be welcome
.
