On windows xp, start, all programs, accessories, system tools, disk clean up. Also in system tools is disk defragmenter which you should run around once a month.

CCleaner as has been suggested, also use the following:

Uninstall any unwanted programs and ALL Java except the latest version, Java 6 update 7 with RevoUninstaller:

It's faster and better than add / remove applet.

When you run it highlight the item then select uninstall in next window select Advanced and click Next, follow prompts when uninstalled it will scan registry and drive for leftover files / folders, tick ONLY the bold items and follow prompts.
