Can I Delete this? UrlCache MMF Ver. 5.2

Besides wasting space, these files can be used to spy on you.
Each of Internet Explorer's primary folders (directories) - Cache, Cookies and History make use
of an indexing technique to maintain information. The index information is contained in files named
Index.dat.
For Cookies and for Cache, the Index.dat files are basically URL entries and pointers to the
associated real files.
URL is an acronym for Uniform Resource Locator which is geek for an Internet Address.
For History, no files are referenced (this is the collection of URL entries used for
AutoComplete and for controlling the highlighting of imbedded links on the Web pages). All three
contain the actual URL plus date/time stamps and reference counts.
