Hi Krazy

Its a little off topic, but I suggest you try to run one of the OS utilities. Depending on the OS (win 98, nt, 2k xp etc). I believe the latter OS use an accessory called disc clean up.

How fast is your space dminishing? Are you saving new items that correspond to the space that disapears? Installed any new applications, or do you feel the memory is being eaten by the applications you've written? Is it hooked up to the internet? Could you have a virus? What operating system is it? Have you done a search for new files added to the machine that could account for space being consumed?

I'll move this to a more approrpiate forum until it can be determined that the memory is being spent by applications written in C/C++ by the user.
