It is time for annual hard drive clearing and I was wondering if I can delete Stuff-It files in the Climate project folder?

Probably not. The only ones safe to delete are workunit files that are finished. (these have mostly numbers for the name)

I don\'t think manual HD cleaning is a good idea (except perhaps the My Documents folder). More useful is the regular use of an application like Ccleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com/); it does a great job cleaning up unnecessary stuff, but is highly configurable in what to keep or delete.
