????Object Sweeper...

March 28, 2003 12:42 PM from

I was looking at Object Sweeper last night... I was only going to look and not actually use it but I pushed the wrong button. The next thing I knew my percent free space on C drive went from only about 30% free to 72% free. ***OOPS***

However.... I am not missing anything, everything works good! So I am wondering what happened? Even the number of files that Norton scans is the same as before!

Hmmm, sounds like you had a lot of temporary internet files there. What have you been doing...

3days old but I have to comment.

I have almost 200gigs full. I would hate to defrag and clean everything at once. I might do one partition every week or sometimes longer. Depending on how bad it looks. I need to do some serious cleaning on my computer. Maybe backup alot of my files and delete them. I think I have like 7 partitions total or something like that.

Don't mind me, just rambleing like normal. But that sortof reminded me to get my butt moving. I just got to say. Some of these games and graphic progs take up major spacage.
