You can disable and re-enable System Restore to clean it up. Start, Help and Support tells how to do this.

I am running a hp pavilion 8870 with windows me which contains a utility called pchealth. It now has a collected data folder which now has 167 files in it going back several years. My free disk space keeps slowly getting smaller even though I am not downloading anything or creating anything. I run defrag and scandisk and clean disk every saturday. This is the only thing that I see that keeps getting bigger. It wont let me delete the files or remove the program or even reset the options for run times. It will let me reset them but as soon as you get out of it, it goe's right back to the defaults. I have tried everything to get rid of these old files with no luck.
It says source file may be in use, have tried safe mode with no luck either. I have no clue what the source file may be. Any suggestions?
