Finding system differences with a previous System restore ..

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

Each time an app is installed, reinstalled or uninstalled XP creates a new
restore point. You can go back for the last 30 days and check each restore
point created during that period. You can also check the app's properties
for date created and that will give you the latest date. Restore points are
normally good for the last 90 days, depending on space alloted.
