Thanks, Tim. I have no idea why the disk size keeps decreasing, but
it surely is doing so. I have cleared off all the files I have
downloaded, so that isn't the problem. Thanks so much for your advice
anway. I will keep trying to find out and not worrying too much about
it.

Hi shane,
I notice that I keep losing disk space. I started
off with a much higher amount of free space than I now have.
• What sorts of things have you been downloading. I can't see how
you could be losing that much space just from downloads, they don't
take up that much disk space usually. do you have a .mac account?
If you do and your idisk has an image on your Mac, that can use up
space. TimeMachine can also use up space when backing up. Other
than that, I'm not sure at this point why you would be losing disk
space.
How does one go about getting to a disk
clean-up utility or something similar? I need to find out what is
taking up
so much disk space.
• I used a utility called Disk Inventory X on my tiger Server once
about a year and a half ago but have not used it since so I'm not
sure where you may find it. for the most part, that utility just
determined the sizes of folders, both visible and hidden, so you
could delete stuff if necessary. I do caution you though to make
real sure what you're removing isn't necessary. You don't want that
kind of trouble.
