Well, I wasn't quite sure where to put this under but I figure this topic was worth a shot. My problem is that my hardrive is 80 GB and to my knowledge I've only used just a bit over 10 GB. However, my computer informs me that i apparently used most of that 80 and is now down to 676 MB.
This is really odd for me and I tried disk scanning and defragmentation. Neither helped. However, I did find the folder/file that seems to be taking up 69.6 GB and it's called
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate\Downloads\liveupdt.tri
The only program I can relate this file to is my Norton Anti-Virus program since I do update the virus definitions and files. however, it's extremely strange for me that it would use up 69.6 GB.
Oh, and I guess I should include some of the past history of this computer. I think less than a week ago, my browser was hijacked which I managed to solve the problem. However, perhaps I didn't solve it completely if this file uses up 69.6 GB out of nowhere. I don't think this is a virus since i scanned with my Norton and the Trend Micro online virus scanner.
So, i'm hoping that someone would be kind of enough to inform me how to fix this problem for I'm somewhat computer illiterate. Thank you for your time!
