If you've installed them, delete them. If you want to save time downloading them ever again, write them to a CD-ROM.

You can also delete the matching hidden uninstall directories under \WINDOWS.

They are named $NT-patchname$

If you have a lot of hot fixes, chances are you haven't upgraded to XP service pack 2, you can download it from Microsoft for free.
