Hi,
I am curious if someone could help me. I have a large hard drive 120Gig, and
when I add up all the folders it only amounts to 1/3 of the total space for
the hard drive, yet I keep getting a listing in my computer, drive,
properties that it is only 9% free space on it. I am not running my OS or
any programs from it, it's basically archived files. What could be the
culprit?
Could someone be using my computer as a server without my knowledge? I have
Norton Firewall 2004 installed and the latest Antivirus def's as well as
running a full system scan in safe mode, and ran lavasoft's adaware as well.
Please shed some light...It's really annoying me.
cheers
