What I found was that PS was backing up temp files to the tune of 70GB. Now I have lots of space left but the program lets me get a snapshot of what is on my drive and how much room it is taking. Well worth the download. Don don.dory@gmail.com On 2/19/07, Jeffery Smith <jsmith342@cox.net> wrote: > > At work, I have a 120 gb hard drive.
