MSOCache folder?

J

Jerry

I just reformatted my HD, installed XP Pro and Office
2003. Then noticed a folder named MSOCache. Because it
uses the word "cache" in it, I'm wondering if it was a
temporary folder used when I installed Office. Am I
close? Is it necessary? Can it be safely deleted?

Just wondering...

Thanks in advance.
