It has nothing to do with your camera. But I'm not sure why you're doing this. It will most likely slow your browsing down, because your computer will have to redownload more images.

I'm thinking you mean the disk space on Internet Explorer for temporary internet files??

If so,,,,YES its okay...but you can leave it large However when you are done surfing go and delete everything, all of it, cookies as well.

*Go to Start>Settings>Control Panel>Internet Options and delete all browsing history (cookies, temporary internet files etc). Check the box, Also delete files and settings stored by add-ons.

They aren't the worst thing, however, they aren't the greatest.
Make it a habit of deleting all those files all the time. Or use Firefox and set the settings to do it when you close the browser.

You can also delete all the temp files as well.

*Make sure your folder settings allow you to see the ALL your folders, Go to My Computer>Folder Options>View. CHeck all the show files boxes and UNCHECK all the Hide boxes. Click apply and ok.

*Go to C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings \temp
Delete all files. (for each user)

No it doesn't wreck your computer it just means how many temporary files will be stored in your temp file.

You can move it down to 0 if you want to
It wont hust anything, but your web browsing will be a little slower.
