Hi.
Have Windows XP Pro.

At the time after installing SP3 and each time after
Windows Update, I delete the uninstall KB subfolders
from Windows folder.
Also deleting all files & subfolders from
Windows/SoftwareDistribution/Download folder.

Recently I've noticed the Windows/ie7updates folder
that Contains KB subfolders. Are those needed after
installing updates to IE7 ? or its OK to delete.

Same question for Windows/ie7 folder
(the folder name is in blue color). Contains files like
DLLs & lots of regxxxxx & spuninst Subfolder.

Also what about Windows/Driver Cache/i386/
sp2 & sp3 cabinet files ?

Thanks.
