Cleanmgr (i.e. Disk Cleanup) hangs my computer

My c: drive partition is 20GB.
13GB is used leaving about 6GB free space.
I want to use the disk cleanup utility, but it seems to hang the
computer.
I've left it running for 30 minutes before I killed the cleanmgr
process.
Is this something that can be fixed?
What should I be looking at to further troubleshoot this problem?
