Something is devouring my system HD's free space
I noticed this starting to happen about a month ago. My system drive had about 60% free space in early September 2006. Gradually it has shrunk to its current 37%. I do not save files to my system drive. I have another drive for that purpose. I've run CrapCleaner and done full system scans with BitDefender9 and Ad-Aware. I've run an online scan with Kaspersky A.V. I've run searches in Explorer looking for strange files but cannot identify anything. Finally, I ran HijackThis 1.99.1. Here's the log.
