Try CCleaner, wwwDOTccleanerDOTcom. I've used it for a year or so now. Works pretty decent.

if you want to get space back, just uninstall the programs that you dont need.
remove movies etc that you dont watch, and other useless stuff.

Delete any old applications you don't use. Do you have others using your system as well? Each side of the system gets their own "section" folder located in C:\Documents And Settings\ which can consume a hefty amount of space for various things.
Along with that, System Restore can take up a fair share of space depending on how much space you allow it to use. You can also remove patch backups from the Windows folder.
As someone above suggestion CCClearner will remove the backups and such that are created when you install updates.

Another useful program is WinDirStat, which will help you locate the folder(s) that are taking up the most space:

go to the main harddrive, documents and settings, the user on windows your on, local settings, delete everything in the Temp folder..
