Have a question re: temp internet files
When I go into my system tools to do a disk clean up it shows a bunch of "temporary internet files". They are taking up almost 365,000 bytes (?) if that is what the 350,000 number is. Is it safe to delete these files? Is it advisable?

Please let me know.

Thanks for any help at all.

1. Yes ...

Web pages you visit often will load faster with some of what is in temp files, but there's nothing in there that is critical to system operation. I have mine deleted every time I exit my browser.
