I recently ran low on space on drive C; which turned out
to be because Microsoft AntiSpyware had a file in its
folder called errors.log which was 2.5 gig big!

I deleted the file, and all seems to run OK. The file has
been re-made but has ony 2k in it.

Any similar experiences?

this is a known issue by many of MSAS beta 1 user and
hopefully it would be fix when they release beta 2.
i think error.log is got to do something with user
accounts, multi-user, limited.

machine.

There is a feature in Ccleaner "options" that will allow you to clean
"custom folders". I haven't tried it.
