Is it safe to remove the items which are in this folder. I used to remove
them I think with 98SE but I'm not sure if it's the same for XP. I have 8
folders in there one of them is Cookies but there is just a dat file in
there. Also there is one with a lot of files in which is called FUJIUSBDRV
which I presume is to do with the driver for my camera. History file and
Temporary Internet Files (4 folders but empty)

Yes, you can remove items in this folder. You can go to Start > Run >
cleanmgr.exe
and choose what type of files to delete.

Good luck
 
Deleting those files are actually a performance gain,most will delete
edit,select all,delete all,if any are required xp wont delete it(1or2).
 
Hi Lynn

Normally that folder can be deleted, but reboot first just to make sure that
none of the files in there are in use.

Thanks everyone I will treat it like it did on W98SE then, I used to right
click on the folders within Temp and choose Delete. I always used to do it
when I first logged on so I will take the same action with XP.
