Its tough to say cause we're not sure what it is that's clogging the drive. You
can try stopping the SYSTEM RESTORE service, which will free up a lot of backup
space. But, doing so will prevent you restoring your system if something should
go haywire in the registry. For the record, I have my SYSTEM RESTORE disabled,
as I don't really need a backup done.
To disable SYSTEM RESTORE, go to START > and then right-click on MY COMPUTER
and select PROPERTIES. Then select the SYSTEM RESTORE tab. Place a check mark
where it says TURN OFF SYSTEM RESTORE ON ALL DRIVES. Then APPLY and OK.

Try doing a Windows DISK CLEANUP. MY COMPUTER > right-click on the C drive.
Under the GENERAL tab, bottom, click DISK CLEANUP. Follow the onscreen
instructions and see if that helps.
Removing the worm... assuming you mean the blaster worm...
A ton of removal tools and instructions if you go to google and type this in
the search:
w32.blaster.worm
Also, I wrote a quick thingy on removing it, with links to the removal
tools. You can find that here:

Still doing scan. The weird thing McAfee tells me I am clean but my disk
is
FULL. This is the first time I get hit like this. When I am clean all the
duplicate files. Do they go away or do I have to do it myself??? Confused.
Thanks!!
