    Hi,

    I have T61 with Vista Business with 80 gigs hard drive.
    I checked my Program files, Users folders (music/documents/pictures), windows folder and the total size is about 35 gigs.

    and recently it's been showing only 8 gigs left free. So I defragmented it through ThinkVintage/Management and Recovery app, and now it says only 2.60 gigs left!!??

    I called up their helpdesk and they say it might be some virus or something but I have Norton anti virus setup which says nothing wrong with my pc.

    They suggested either do the system restore with old backups or reinstall everything from start!?

    please suggest me some way out if there's any,

    thanks
    Breath

    Probably due to those restore points that Windows creates...
