I use a free program called CCleaner (for "crap cleaner") which removes the browser cache (while giving you the option to save the cookies that you actually want), empties the recycle bin and gets rid of other junk on the hard drive, and does all of this faster than Windows Disk Cleanup.  I think it makes a big difference.

The latest version of Webroot's Window Washer can do exactly what you are asking. It has options for both "cleaning" unused disc drive space OR writing over the entire hard drive if you plan to get rid of your PC. It has a free trial period as well. \nYou can find the link for the "trial" download on the lower right side of this page:\nhttp://www.webroot.com/consumer/products/windowwasher/?WRSID=0da13aacf0e19957ec0dc21c40fb73a2

hi there,\n    oh yea, most of us have this problem, ok here we go, first of all in win XP there is a system restore feature, which eats a lot of disk space, last week I retrieved 1.2 gb from my friends harddrive by disabling system restore.  So, if you are sure that you pc in future will not require SYSTEM RESTORE feature then disable it by RIGHT CLICK on MY COMPUTER - > PROPERTIES - > then select SYSTEM RESTORE tab, then, using settings turn off system restore for all drives. this will save more space.\n\nAnd regarding the files you want to delete, open the search box below the LOOK IN box click WHAT SIZE IS IT?, then specify the estimated size like starting from 512000kb(500MB) (for every MB add 1024 kb), then click on MORE ADVANCED OPTIONS check the boxes of SEARCH SYSTEM FOLDERS(IF U WANT),SEARCH HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS, SEARCH SUBFOLDERS. thats it, by specifying these results you can search for a specified sized files even if its hidden.\n\n   I think the files in the temporary folders (TEMP N TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES) are not shown, for that go to ur system drive then DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS->(select ur login id)->LOCAL SETTINGS, in this folder you can see the two temporary folders, try to search those folders individually using search options.\n\nthats it\n see ya,\nK.A.G.S.

Get a disk compactor.  Just use Yahoo to search for one.  It slows it down but frees a ton of space.  Also clear files you don't use.

Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs\n\nThat will list programs installed on your computer, which could be taking up disc space, you can also compress your hard drive like so:\n\nOpen "My Computer", right click your C: drive, go to "Properties", check the box: "Compress to save disc space", also check to compress sub-folders, and click "OK".\n\nThis process can take several hours depending on the size of your harddrive.

You can also have them automatically emptied when you close the internet or turn off your computer, or disable them completely.\n\nI would run a check every three days to delete unwanted files, virus scan often.

Delete unused files that clutter up your space. Restart your computer as well if needed.

to clean your computer of downloads, teporary files etc;\n\ngo to my computer\n\nclick C drive\n\nright click the C drive and click properties\n\nwhen you click properties your disk space will show and then you will see a DISK CLEAN up option\n\nClick the DISK CLEAN UP option and the computer will auto scan file folders etc. that can be eliminated to free computer space.\n\nAfter scan you will see an info box that will give you options to CHECK if you want these files/folders deleted; DOWNLOADED PROGRAM FILES is the very 1st option; check that box and other you want to delete and you should be on your way to cleaning up and freeing up space on your desktop. \n\nOh!

May be the few programs you have installed they have occupied all that big space.The other reason is user files and temp files. Perform disk clean up [Start>programs>accessories>system tools>disc clean up. (windows)]

^^ Yup.. you can also delete anything in Tempory Internet Files , but you will have the same problems as above.  Try looking for files of previously removed programs, and delete them. It also helps to defragment your hard drive.

Here is a great clean-up utility that deletes temp files and items that may not be needed.  Be careful with the setting as it is very good at what it does. \n\nWindows Clean-up

Well, it depends on what type of browser your using.  Here a couple suggestions.\n\nClearing Cache on Microsoft Internet Explorer:\n\nClick Start-->select Control Panel-->Double-click Internet Options-->Under General Tab there is a section called Temporary Internet files Click Delete Files then click OK.\n\nIf you have Delete Cookies click on that and then Click OK.\n\nAlso, under Temporary Internet files if you have a Settings button click on that then make sure Check for newer versions of stored pages: is set to Automatically-->then under Temporary Internet files folder make sure Amount of disk space to use is set to 100MB.\n\nIf you are using a web browser other than Internet Explorer goto http://support.lexis-nexis.com/lexiscom/record.asp?ArticleID=wg_cache for directions.\n\nOne more thing you could do is go back to Internet Options-->Advanced tab-->Scroll down until you see the Security section-->Select the Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed option OR Delete saved pages when browser closed option, depends on what version of Internet Explorer your using.\n\nLastly, just restarting your computer in general resets and clears out your system memory.\n\nHope this helps!
