Folks,
I have 19gb of msp files in windows/installer. My harddrive is rapidly running out of space. Do you know what these files are? Is it ok for me to delete them?

I've replied to JamieB's previous thread. If you're using Icon view in Explorer, Jamie, switch to Detailed view to see the file sizes. then just delete the very large one(s). Use SHIFT delete as I said before.
