Well ESP normally refers to embedded systems programming, and as far as I am aware there is a language called ESP for programming devices (I think it's called esterel synchronous programming language?)
Otherwise, I'm with hdezela

what cperciva said. its a 32-bit cpu register that is used to store a pointer (memory address) of the current stack frame.
if you are running a debug build of an executable compiled by vc++ and it gives you an ESP corruption error, double check the calling convention, number of arguments you are passing to the function and all unbounded memory operations within the function. just an example =]
