I have a bad habit of finding too many programs (usually free) and
installing them on my Mac Pro.  Now, after about 5 years of this
addiction, my computer is rebelling with degraded performance.  I 
would
like to identify programs that were installed a long time ago and have
not been used for a long time, so that I might uninstall them.

Does anyone know of a utility that will help identify such programs
(old install date, not been opened in a long time)?  Thanks in advance
for any help you might offer.
