Hey, what do you mean by "Make sure the wallet is closed"

Hey, what do you mean by "Make sure the wallet is closed"  

if you have the wallet file running (.exe) close it so the blockchain isn't syncing anymore then delete the folder I told you to delete

Well, BitCoin-Qt takes about 12GB of disk space if I'm correct. Delete the Bitcoin folder in C:\ drive, make sure you can view hidden files and then open Start and type in the text box "%appdata%" without the quotes of course and delete the Bitcoin folder in it. I'd recommend you MultiBit, it's not online wallet, but people use it as BitCoin-Qt alternative, it doesn't sync so long and doesn't take such space on your PC. Also you could try Armory, but as far as I know for that you'll need BTC-Qt, so basically switch to MultiBit...

EDIT: Yes you can change the address in GUIminer, but you'll have to edit the miner.

Delete the block files

Sure. I will delete Bitcoin-qt using the above method. 

I have a COINBASE online account and I am currently using GUI-miner and mining via Slush's pool.

Can i update my COINBASE wallet address and delete the Bitcoin-qt address in Slush's mining server?

The blockchain is what is taking up all the space. It is located (usually) in c:\users\[username]\appdata\Bitcoin

Delete this folder after ensuring that the bitcoin program (usually referred to as the "wallet") is not running.

If you will not be using the bitcoin-qt wallet again, then you need to update (or just remove) any references to the BTC addresses associated with the wallet in your coinpools, and any other out-paying services you have. You can get online wallets, or use one of the low-overhead wallet options (like multibit) referenced on the bitcoin.org website. But remember to follow security guidelines for online wallets. Search them here if you don;t know what these guidelines are.

Hope this helps.
