Note that messing around with prefetch is one of those performance myths. Sites will pop up now and again saying that clearing out your prefetch folder will increase performance, when in fact it does the opposite. Unless you've basically removed all your old programs and installed completely different ones, it's best to just let your OS manage your prefetch for you. It will automatically delete applications from your prefetch that you haven't used for a few months.
