Yes, any recurring error that is a problem will be there again.

For the amount of disk space you'll gain it's NOT worth the risk.
Read this, especially the comments.

Hi allure,

Yes, it is perfectly safe to allow disk clean up to delete these files.
These files are only used when you send error reports about non-reponsive
programs to Microsoft. Since most of the errors are caused by 3rd party
programs and that is the 3rd party manufacturer's responsibility to ensure
that their software works with Vista and not the other way round, it is
reasonable to disable this error reporting feature if you so wish.

WARNING:

If a registry cleaner or any other third-party program had wiped out the handler information in the registry, then it can prove disastrous to clear the error report data using Disk Cleanup.
