I was cleaning up the programs I have on my PC and I was
using " Add/ Remove Programs" in the control panel. I
noticed I have a long list of Window's XP Hotfix's, SP
1's and 2's. Do I need these? If so is there a way for
me to group them into a folder so the list isn't so long
in my control panel.

Thanks for all your help!!
 
If you uninstall these, from Add/Remove Programs, you will uninstall the hotfixes themselves. These are security and other updates that are installed from Windows Updates. The entries that you see in Add/Remove point to backup files that were created when the Hotfix was installed. If your system is running well, and you don't need to uninstall any of the hotfixes, the backup files and associated Registry entries can be removed. See www.dougknox.com, Win XP Utilities, Remove Hotfix Backup Files.
