Today I removed the program KaZaA from my computer because I realized how pointless it was to have. I did, however, have 1GB worth of songs along with it. I tried to get rid of it using the Add/Remove programs list, but it didn't work. So I decided to use Norton Cleansweep to get rid of it. Before I got rid of it, I had about 19.5 GB of memory left out of about 39GB. If I got rid of KaZaA and all the songs (1GB), I should have had 20.5 GB. I decided that I would get rid of KaZaA but keep much of my song files. So what I did is made a new folder, made copies of those songs into this new folder. At this point, my free space on my hard drive was down to 18.5GB (because the songs doubled). I then continued to delete KaZaA. Norton made a backup (about 1GB in size), but I deleted it seeing as I didn't need it. Well my songs got erased, but that isn't the problem. The problem is that I'm still at 18.5 GB free memory - after deleting the songs and KaZaA. All of the songs (1GB of them) are gone, but I am still at 18.5. I then got rid of all those backups since they were pointless shortcuts that led to nowhere. I was still stuck at 18.5. I then did some disk cleanup and such. Then I defragmented my hard disk. Every thing went as usual except for the fact that I had MUCH MORE Free Space for System Use than normal. What happened to all that space? I calculated that once all those songs and KaZaA were gone, I would have 20.5 GB of hard disk space. I would appreciate if someone could take the time to tell me what happened to all that space. I don't understand how it can just be gone
