-> I started Deleting Files and cleaning space, yet my drive shows I'm
-> losing space?? What is going on?

Are you cleaning your temporary internet files, cookies and browser
cache when you do you hard drive cleanup? You also might want to check
and make sure that you uninstall software that you are sure you are no
longer using.

To whom are you writing? While you did quote a little bit of the original
post, you started a new thread. Please see below for a better way to access

Thanks for the information, but no one knows to whom you are giving this
information since you are not posting on a real forum as you think you are.
You are using a web interface that leeches Usenet posts and most of the
rest of us are using real newsreaders. We don't see what you do. If you
want to participate in Usenet, the better way is to set up a newsreader.
This is very easy to do and I'll give you information about that below. If
you prefer to use a forum, then here are two excellent ones:

Since you are using a web interface, you may not realize that this is really
a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you learn to use
a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows, but you can use
Outlook Express (XP) or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have it.
Here are some links to information about newsgroups:
