It will not affect Virtual Memory, for mare details on Virtual Memory look below.
Virtual memory is a computer system technique which gives an application program the impression that it has contiguous working memory, while in fact it is physically fragmented and may even overflow on to disk storage. Systems which use this technique make programming of large applications easier and use real physical memory (e.g. RAM) more efficiently than those without virtual memory.
Note that "virtual memory" is not just "using disk space to extend physical memory size". Extending memory is a normal consequence of using virtual memory techniques, but can be done by other means such as overlays or swapping programs and their data completely out to disk while they are inactive. The definition of "virtual memory" is based on tricking programs into thinking they are using large blocks of contiguous addresses.
All modern general purpose computer operating systems use virtual memory techniques for ordinary applications, such as word processors, spreadsheets, and multimedia players. Older operating systems, such as DOS of the 1980s, or many mainframe operating systems of the 1960s, had no virtual memory functionality.
Embedded systems and others in which very fast, very consistent response time is essential do not generally use virtual memory.

see santana, when u delete a file or even a picture for that matter you don't delete it permanently . what the computer does is that it allocates the memory occupied by the deleted file for overwriting . so actually the space is not fully empty. if you want to fully remove the file you should shred it . shredding it permanently deletes the file and also frees up a decent amt. of memory.enjoy ur computing xperience . god bless!!

No. Once a file has been deleted, the memory is freed up for other files/data. (But if your operating system sends deleted files to a "recycling bin," you will need to empty this bin the truly free up the physical memory on the harddisk.)

there is a simple solution to that. At the end of your browsing run a freeware temp files cleaner like ccleaner, that will delete any useless temp file and free up the disk space
