Why you should empty Temporary Internet Files Folder
To reduce the amount of time you have to spend waiting to view webpages, Internet Explorer (IE) stores many of the web pages and graphics you view in the Temporary Internet Files folder on your hard drive. The benefit of storing information in the Temporary Internet Files folder is that when you revisit a web page, IE displays the web page using information stored within Temporary Internet Files folder instead of retrieving all the information from the Internet.
But on the other hand Temporary Internet Files folder can grow rather large and, as a result, can consume a large amount of hard drive space. If you have sufficient hard drive space, this may not be an issue. However, if your system slows down, you should delete the content of Temporary Internet Files folder.
