Drive space disappearing

Hi,

the space on my hard drive keeps disappearing, I've repeatedly deleted files and programs because I thought I could just have too many, but every time I do this the space slowly disappears, I was wondering if anybody could help with this...

I ran HijackThis, this is the logfile:

    Attie,


    I am following up on threads more then a few days old. If you still need assistance then please close all browser windows and unnecessary programs and open hijackthis and click on the first button which says...scan/save log file. when the log file opens for you to save select all and copy and paste the new log file here by replying to this thread. If you have taken care of this or do not wish to reply, we will consider it a done deal and close this thread. Conversely, if the thread is closed you may contact any moderator to continue with help or repost as necessary.


    Thank you
