O.P. Huge C:\WINDOWS folder

Hi guys

I'm having a problem since one month with my C:\ drive
Usually, I rarely install stuffs on that drive so I always have about 20GB of free space.
But since one month, I noticed that the space is decreasing like, every day.
Last week I had like 9GB of free space and this week I found out that I had only 4.6 GB free space

And I still never install stuffs on that drive so that's kinda curios so, by looking where was my problem, I found out that my WINDOWS folder, which normally is about 5GB, has increased to 22GB

So I was woundering what happened to my WINDOWS folder, if there was a way to cleaning it without deleting important datas, like a program that does that folder cleanup or something? (I used Disk cleanup and it cleaned only like 100 MB)

I'm using Windows XP SP2

Thanks a lot
