    a lot of games need these c++ stuff - it's best to just leave them - they don't take up much space, and they won't slow your computer.

    as far as the sql stuff goes, i think that gets installed as part of windows live. again, i would advise keeping it, otherwise some of your programs may not work.

    Not only updates, new versions aswell...They will re-install upon new softwares if you delete them!

    nothing to worry about - i'm sure most gamers will have them on their system.

    here's mine, for example:
