    1. Disable System Restore
    2. Clear Temp files and Recycle Bin
    3. Disable Hibernate
    4. Disable Virtual Memory in Drive C:

    And Tell me size of each of these folders

    C:\Documents and Settings
    C:\WINDOWS
    C:\WINDOWS

    Does it matter!

    Dude if its newly installed or a C drive which has hardly anything else installed, is it so hard to just format the damn drive and install xp again? :confused: :rolleyes:

    All the trouble and time you are taking to recover from a possible virus or any other issue can be used to just format and install the xp.... Its just a matter of 10-15mins to format and install XP.

    use ATF cleaner (freeweare just search in google)

    had the same problem happens because of programs such as web browsers saving temporary files ATF cleaner clears then out

    for me it clears about 3 gb every week
