When metatrader runs on windows 7 it is almost sure (unless you have specified the /portable switch) that your indicators are not stored in the metatrader\experts\indicators folder but somewhere in the Documents and Setting\User name\Application data\...

So, either you have to delete indicators from the indicators list (in the terminal) with the right click->delete, or you have to find the exact folder where the indicators are saved and delete them from there

I am using XP too for a PC that I use for trading

Much more reliable than windows 7 or windows 8
