Before automatic updates installed SP2 on my machine I had about 6 GB of HD
space. After installation was complete I had about 200 MB< Yes I went from 6
GB to 200 MB of HD space, When I became awrare of this I immediately
installed an additional HD in my machine and moved what I could to the new
one. After I had done this I was back up to about 1.5 Gig but the machine
was very slow and is. Also I am having problems with my machine freezing up.
or running very slow. I have a P4 2,8 with 512 of ram. My machine has been
used maderatly to heavy since the initial install about 1 1/2 years ago. I
have tried everything I can think of but am getting nowhere. I just checked
and I have 500 meg of a 20 gig HD remaing free. Where did it go.. HAHA
Thanks John
 
John, have you cleaned out your system lately? Rt click on Drive Icon
in MyComputer select Properties>Disk Cleanup>
More Options>System Restore>Cleanup. Say Yes and Ok to all. You should
also check for trojans, spyware, adware
and Virus. You can use these free sites. The last two Spyware Sweeper
and System Mechanic are free for 30 day trial.
