I'd like to know if it is safe to delete any of these files:

LPT$VPN.406 - 12,516 KB - C:\WINDOWS
VPTNFILE.406 - 12,516 KB - C:\WINDOWS
lpt$vpn.406 - 12,516 KB - C:\WINDOWS\AU_Temp
lpt$vpn.406 - 12,516 KB - C:\WINDOWS\AU_Temp\AU_Down\pattern
\vsapi406.zip
PAV.SIG - 13,843 KB - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ActiveScan
Pav.sig - 13,843 KB - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\ActiveScan\ActiveScan

They were all modified in 2005. I'm pretty sure they're all from those
free online virus scanners.

Panda and Trend Micro scanner signature files.
You can delete them.
