    Hey Somehow I have lost 5GB of my hard disk space.:baffled: I figured out that Application Data folder of Kaspersky seems Too larger than it should be and Located a Hidden Folder Using command Prompt that otherwise invisible named "Pdmhist" causing the trouble. :angry:

    C:\ Documents and settings\All Users\Application Data\Kaspersky Lab\AVP7\Pdmhist

    Fig 1 :- Pdmhist Folder. and it's folder property window.

    The funny thing is my entire disk space is smaller than this. :? :baffled: :baffled:

    Fig 2 :- How can I have a 20+GB files in a 10GB disk.???

    Then I tried to manually Delete the files of this mystery folder, but it didn't allow me to do so.. :confused:

    So when I tried to enter the a sub folder of this Pdmhist, It didn't allow me to do so either. :confused:

    Fig 3:- The file name, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect

    It doesn't seems like a virus to me. System is running pretty well as usual. No suspicious tasks in Task Manager too. But I can be wrong. Please can any one HELP me to recover my lost disk space....

    :'(
