I downloaded from disc some large (4GB) files. i then deleted (too big for rec bin) them from the hard drive. They dont appear in the contents list but are still shown on the volume of the drive and now I cant download anything else cos the drive is full, help!
 
Ok, ok, so I know I'm answering my own question here but this is for anybody else who has this problem. I've just discovered that the original files were protected by Norton AntiVirus, so when I thought I'd deleted them infact all I was deleting were the icons!! By using Nortons Wipe Info tool I restored the original files and then put them through the Wipe Tool and right now as I'm writing this, Norton (such a nice chap!) is happily erasing my unwanted files.........
