Duplicate GAC entries: Why? Is it safe to delete duplicates?

The GAC on my development computer has several assemblies which are
duplicated. For instance, the System assembly is present as two different
native images as well as the non-native version. The native images differ by
date/time stamp -- although they are only different by 3 days during Feb/2004.

Many of the System assemblies have similar duplicated native images.

Why are there multiple copies of these assemblies?

Is it safe, useful, and wise to delete redundant duplicates?

Thanks for the information. Please advise if this message should be posted
to another group.
