system restore points are not being kept

my system is not keeping automatic or manual system restore points & i can't
figure out why. i've checked the settings- it's on & i have it set to max
space (are there other settings i should be aware about?).

it will keep the very last restore point (so like a few hours earlier in the
day) but nothing before that. just today i created a manual restore point; &
now after making a few changes here & there- my manual point is gone,
although the last couple things i did are there as a restore point.

i don't know if it's related to a virus (everything looks clean), or maybe
all my security or manintenance stuff is somehow erasing restore points, or a
setting i'm missing.

if anyone else has this problem or can help- please!

antivir antivirus

tuneup utilites 2007 (automatic tuneups)
 
thanks for the info. i'm looking at it & going through it...but just want to
re-iterate: my system will "restore" ok & will usually keep a restore point
from eariler in the day..but it doesn't keep anything more recent than a few
hours...it seems like something is "erasing" the restore points or something.
 
TuneUp Utilites 2007 is new to me but it could be why you are losing
restore points. The System Restore option on the More Options tab in
Disk CleanUp removes restore points in a similar way but only by user
action. TuneUp Utilites 2007 could be automatically carrying out the
same function. You should see if TuneUp Utilites 2007 can be configured
differently.
