And now for something completely different LOL

Seriously, why is the space on my C: drive shrinking by the day, even though i am even deleting programs off it now to try and get some more?
Got rid of emails, temp files, you name it.......
Defrag wont even run now as i have less than 15% free.

MadMonkey: Search your disk for files larger than ... errr ... 2Gb! If you don't find any, try a smaller file size :)

Identify what program is writing to those files and disable that program.

... I suspect some kind of logging.
