Thanks Barry,
I wish it were that simple - nothing appears amiss, no duplication at
all. Though another 4GB has disappeared since I wrote last :( Time to
turn the Airport off and head for the cot.
Best wishes,

Recently I had a problem where my hard drive filled up without
apparent reason.. I eventually discovered that for no apparent
reason everything had been duplicated, possibly due to a backup
glitch. I finally tracked the problem down using "disk inventory X"
which showed me where everything was on the disk and what was taking
up all the room.
Hope this helps and is not "teaching Grandmother etc...".
Regards
Barry

Please would anyone have any idea how 155GB of free space on a
500GB drive fill up in 5 hours with no user activity? The laptop -
a MacBook Pro, late 2007, 4GB Ram running 10.6.2 was wirelessly
connected to the internet and McAfee ran finding 431 malwares, but
on the backup drive! To email I've moved 81GB of pictures to free
up drive space.
Best wishes,
