How do I delete old WU files?

I need to free up space on a Win2k server system partition. How can I safely
get rid of old hidden uninstall files ($NtUninstall...) in the
%SystemRoot%\system32\ directory?

I've run Disk Cleanup, etc and stil don't have enough space to run the
latest SP4 rollup. This is the main file server for my org, and it would be
better not to rebuild it right now.

You know how a 4GB system partition looked like so much space 3 years ago...?
