This is a really great script for the Mac that searches through your iTunes library and will delete all the entries that are missing ie. the ones that get a (!) next to them when you try to play them.
This can happen quite easily with iTunes as it has no 'Now Playing' playlist, anything it opens automatically gets added to the library. This can be quite annoying if you are just downloading simple clips from the net, playing them and then deleting them.
To use the script, simply download it from here: Super Remove Dead Tracks V2.1
open the disk image and copy the files to [username]/Library/iTunes/Scripts/, creating the Scripts folder if necessary.
You can then run it from the menu with the Script icon in iTunes and it will tell you how many tracks were removed if any once it has finished. As an added bonus it will also give you an update every 500 tracks it scans which could be useful if you have a big library.
Unfortunately there is no Windows alternative at the moment but there is a work-around available from here.
