Hi all, I hope someone can help me here. My hard drive was almost full, only 300 megs free. I was able to delete and uninstall a bunch of stuff to where I had 1.09 gigs available. I wanted to defrag the HD, but Windows said I needed more free space to defrag. So I went back to the software list and saw that Avast was 499 megs, and since this is a computer that is not online I figured I'd go ahead and uninstall it. I ran the uninstall, rebooted like it requested, and now I have 715 megs of free space! Uninstalling Avast cost me close to 300 megs of the space I had before I removed it!!!!! Ran all kinds of disk cleanup software, my recycle bin is empty, and I can't find anymore temp folders to delete.
I'm getting desperate here, next step may be to format the HD if no one has any ideas.
TIA!
