Does this sound right???

I have been away for a while and the wife has been in my office looking thought some old pic cd/dvds....

Next thing you know i start getting "low disk space" messages...i start looking around and my temp file is loaded w/ 6GB os stuff...

C:\Documents and Settings\Aaron\Local Settings

Now mind you this drive is only 18 GB total...

Is this my problem?

Run ccleaner (http://download.cnet.com/ccleaner/).

not really; windows programs are weird. Some dump a lot of crap in C:\documents and settings\username\local settings\temp

I just use ccleaner once a month or so.
