The PostrgreSQL folder on my hard drive is 23 GB large, even though my database is relatively small. The largest folder is the C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.4\data\base folder with 17.4 GB. Something in there I can possibly delete?

Don't touch this folder or you will loose all your data.
You can delete obsolete databases via pgadmin - but not the postgresql database or other system databases.
And you can delete files in the pg_log folder: http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/85/Large+Log+Files
