Settings\your username\Local

Settings\Temp folder microsoft should add some stuff

that would track eraser that would clean out my harddrive
all the junk folder that are not necessary and ok to
delete.

yes you can.

If you want to do this in an automatic fashion, look for Disk Cleanup in
accessories.

username\Local Settings\Temp is still not empty alot

Temp folder

I'd go ahead and clean it by hand--shouldn't be a problem--or use the app
plun has been plugging to clean.

I think the files that won't leave are the perf files. Try doing the disk
clean up in Safe Mode.

Yea...

this also cleans index.dat....!!!

And Bill, normal users have indeed problem when they see this
"temporarily mess" first time and they also leaves a lot.......

My understanding of the "model" under which this operates is that Temp is
allowed to build up until there's an issue with disk space, in which case
Disk Cleaner is automatically triggered (happens at every startup on my
machine!)--and takes care of it.

I've never investigated whether disk cleaner leaves a lot behind--I wouldn't
expect it, and will try to remember to check it some time. As a devotee of
the command prompt, I tend to clean by hand anyway. I like the feeling of
grabbing the bytes between the fingertips and yanking them free of that
sticky stuff on the disk platters and seeing them disappear completely
without any of that recycle bin nonsense.
