This comment caught my eye.  I'm sure most know about the following little
tip, but just in case...

If you're using the "Disk Cleanup" app baked into XP/2003 and earlier, and
it takes forever at "Scanning: Compress old files", delete the registry key
at
"HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VolumeCaches\Compress
old files".  In the future Disk Cleanup will skip the compression option
completely and move straight to what you were looking for all along.

Or use CCleaner.
