I just use CCleaner. Doesn't that clear out the temp automatically?

No - not unless you adjust some settings. Plus, the one you see in the main interface - if I'm not mistaken - is for the Windows\Temp folder
Lashiec:
No, it does get both, actually in Windows XP for what I saw, the "Windows\Temp" folder is not even used (at least on my computer)
Veign:
5Gig Temp folder is Huge.
Do what a couple others pointed out and that's sort by date and remove all files/folders previous to today's date.
If you're still worried about the volume of files and that something may be useful then create a backup folder and move the files into it. Reboot the computer and run apps for a few days to make sure there are no issues.
J-Mac:
Veign,
That's exactly what I have done, kind of. I synced the entire folder to another drive just in case.
