After doing a disk cleanup,
example,
Downloaded Program Files,
temporary Internet files,
Cleaned up files still appear in these
Folders. Why do they still remain?.

Get Crap Cleaner from http://www.ccleaner.com/ and it will truly clean
your machine of temp files, including Fire Fox/Mozilla cookies. It is
also configurable to NOT delete cookies you may want to save.

Alias,
Thanks for your reply.
It does not answer my question.
Using a program that's part of the OS,
WinXp Home Sp2, and it didn't do what It's supposed to.
I recently upgraded my system which I thought was operating correctly to my
amazement was slow as molasses, now I tend to be hesitant about doing
addons. Thanks again for your reply.

If the files remain, then Disk Cleanup isnt operating.

Upgrade what? or from what?

Crap Cleaner is not an add on but a program that works much better than
the built-in XP Clean Up. If I were you, I would download Crap Cleaner,
run it and then do a defrag. I would also check the Start Up tab in
MSCONFIG to see what's loading up with Windows that may be running in
the background and using up your computer's resources.

What you don't want to mess with in Crap Cleaner is the Issues feature.
Leave that alone.

Your problem with Disk CleanUp may be that you
may need to run it in more than one User Profile
if you have more than user of the computer with their
own Log On.

However, Disk CleanUp is not so effective as cCleaner.
With any cleaner you need to proceed with caution. I invariably
recommend creating a restore point before using cCleaner.
cCleaner also offers backup before removal.

When using cCleaner think twice before checking before
Autocomplete Form History under Internet Explorer.
You do get a warning but this one has irritating consequences.
