 Reduce the Size of Your Recycle Bin
By default, the Windows XP recycling bin reserves up to 12% of each logical drive for storing deleted files. If you're the type that doesn't often empty the bin, your hard disk space will suffer for it. Fortunately it's quite simple to set the bin to use less of your precious space in the future:
Right click on the recycling bin and choose 'properties.' There will be a tab corresponding to each of your logical partitions (c:, d:, etc.). Click on each and lower the slider to reduce the amount of space the recycle bin will steal for its files. Click 'ok' to save the settings.
