Hard Drive Space Dimishing
I have 80 GB hard drive on my computer and for some reason, the remaining free spaces slowly dimishes. Don't keep many big files on the system, most would be about 6 GB of music. Don't have many programs on it either. Biggest would be Adobe CS2. Basically, a normal desktop PC. It's healthy too. I run Norton scans and Spysweepers. I regularly delete cookies, temporary internet files, the recycle bin, etc. Might be best shown through an example: let's say I download a number of music tracks to my hard drive, say about 10. And let's say before this is done, I have 12 GB of free space remaining. And let's say that when the 10 songs are downloaded, my free space reduces to 11GB. No problem understanding that. However, let's say that I don't like any of the 10 songs and I delete them. I would notice that the free space doesn't replenish to 12 GB but might only go up to 11.7 GB. This had been happening for quite some time and is not exclusive to music downloads... ANY ADVICE ON HOW TO FIX?
