I've been looking at the files on C drive closely and wondering why I have so much apparent clutter. Earlier tonight I deleted about 10,000 files theat had built up in the internet temp folders. 95% of the files were 0 bytes in size but I just had to get rid of all of them!

The installer files are mostly used as uninstaller files too. Click on one and see.

As for your temp internet files these can be deleted automatically in your internet settings every few days.
