Disk Clean up Freezing

When I try to run Disk Clean up in win2k, it doesnt freeze, but it won't go past a certain point, and i have to ctrl/alt/del to stop it from running. it never says that it is not responding, but i had let it run for 45 minutes and came back with it still in the same place as it was before, but still it was responding. what is wrong?
in the disk clean up there are options of which folders to clean lik recycled bin and so on so just go manually to each folder and see what is there and delete it once then you wont have this problem again
ENJOY!
