not sure about downloaded installations

but its 100% safe to remove the $folders and servicepackfiles, just means you can't uninstall the services pack and hotfixes

I used to waste my time with this when I had an 850MB Harddrive, but now? Who cares, the system takes care of itself. Maybe once a year I'll delete stuff in windows/temp. My win folder is 2.06GB. I download 10 times as much crap as that every week. whats a gig here and there??

having a clean os is important imo, keeps it running quickly and as it should
