If using XP go to Computer/ and the drive OS is on. Mine is at
Computer/D/documents and settings/my name/local settings/temp and I delete
the temp files. Some are in use but I just now did that and regained 500MBs
back.
Hope this helps.

I keep getting alerts that my hard disk space is seriously low. right now,
it
says I have 14 mb. In 5 minutes, it might say I have 10 gb.
It is fluctuating dramatically.
I've scanned for viruses and spyware and they say I'm clean. I am
re-scanning
again now. I can't believe there isn't a virus on here causing this. I get
pop
ups that I don't have enough free space in case norton needs to quarentine
anything. I've scanned with my norton and also with trend and with panda.
I did open an e-mail this morning that appeared normal - until I opened it.
I
closed it immediately. I don't recall if it was blank or if it had a url on
it.
but since then, I've received similar e-mails as it about 5 times. (making
me
suspicious) It was from a legitimate source. I'm concerned it is the new
varient of that bagel worm.
I am also having trouble sending e-mail. My norton says my server is down
and
unable to process the mail. (norton scans outgoing mail)
so - if anyone has any thoughts, I'd appreciate them. IF a virus doesn't
show up
on this scan - what could it be?
or where else should I go to scan? Trend mentioned the new varient, so they
should be finding it if it's on here.....
all of this, plus I have a migraine today! batting 1000 !!
