Different versions and updates of Microsoft Visual C++, can I all?

Hello. I use Windows Vista Home Premium, 32-bit with Service Pack 2. I have two different versions of the C++ installed and updates. I was wondering if it is okay to remove one of these items? They appear in the list programs and features on the control panel:

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (installed on 22/06/2007 558 kb)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 ATL Update kb973923 - x 86 8.0.50727.4053 (29/07/2009 251 KB)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x 86 9.0.21022.218 (2010-03-04 594 KB)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x 86 9.0.30729.17 (2010-11-13 231 KB)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 ATL Update kb973924 - x 86 9.0.30729.4148 (13/11/2010 199KO)

The last two points have been installed with another program (BitDefender Internet Security 2011) automatically. All comments are appreciated. Thank you.

Do not remove them! By replacing the "DLL he 'll" (the forums without space sensors) (new version 'old' substitution, that break older software) MS creates the WinSxS folder, and now several DLL versions can be stored side by side (SxS). Now, the application uses the version it was built!

Thus, NEVER uninstall a Runtime VC ++!
