I've used it on W95 & 98, and I didn't notice anything; but I tend to
delete them from the command prompt. I've a batch file set up so that
when command.com is run, doskey is loaded and I set dircmd=/l/a/ogen ,
which shows all hidden files and directories (amongst other things).
It's simple enough to run deltree, but on several machines it took about
twenty minutes to go through the whole directory.

Did you mean to say 'IE installed on Linux'?
