Lance, not sure if this will take of your exact problem, but this is one of the free programs I use to clean up my system.

I am sure you already have this, another nice free one. Again, not sure if this is targeted at your exact problem.
http://www.ccleaner.com/
This one is for more secure file deletion, but since it works on so many files, it might do the job to just remove files. A few more I will list here are more for secure file deletion, a while back I had to remove some secure data, but they might work too to just remove a file, but may take longer. Obviously just be careful that you are only removing exaxtly what you want to with these because they will overwrite, not just remove.

I chose these because you can choose specific folders within folders. |
