Can I delete C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp\par-Administrator

palkia has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello

I recently found myself in need to free some space in my pc (winXp) so naturally I started by looking at the temp files.
After running a quick size check, I found that the directory C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp\par-Administrator is 1.3GB.
I believe it has something to do with the par packer module used to convert .pl to .exe but I can't be sure.

My question is: is it really about the pp module, and if so, can I delete this directory without worry of consequences such as problems with future use of the pp module etc ?

Thx
