Anne, is var/ on / ? 

Why i ask, is because var is a culprit likely to grow if not treated right.
- If you turn your comp off overnight you need anacron installed to clean out 
/var/log/ files else they just keep on growing like topsy. (cron runs logrotate at 
about 4am IIRC).
- apache html files may be stored there (depends on OS version). A site growing as you 
add html and its pics means var grows.
- mail and news may be stored in var/

IMHO usr/ grows very slowly... ie only as you install new software.
