It is always safe to delete the contents of the temp folder. Because
it's safe to delete any temp files that aren't open and in use by an
application, and since Windows won't let you delete open files, it's
safe to (try to) delete them at any time. If any fail to delete
because they're open, they'll either be deleted automatically when the
app using them closes, or you'll get them the next time you delete
manually.

Get CrapCleaner and let it do all that for you. It has an option to not
delete files less than 48hrs. old but I turn that option off. It also has
secure deletion. This is a great free prog for keeping your PC unclogged
with shite temp files. Both system temp files and internet temp files. I
run it about twice a week but for most people once or twice a month is
good. Depends how often you don't mind re-entering your username and
password into web sites you need to log into. You can also just type %temp%
in the run box to bring up temp files to delete mnaually. Anything you see
there can be safely deleted.

WHA?????

CCleaner is a GREAT cookie manager! You can choose which to keep and
which to eliminate.

Options | Cookies.

Move the ones you want to keep to the right panel. Next cleaning will
only remove what is in the left panel.
