I am also interested.
I recently had a Sandist Mini-Cruzer 512 meg memory stick that seemed to
have less and less room on it, no matter how much stuff I deleted from it.
I called Sandisk and they immediately told me to save the stuff on it, then
just FORMAT the stick.
I did it and got it acting right again.
I don't guarantee it won't need formatting in a week or two but it's got a
full 512 megs available now.
Seems like a defect in design but I reckon that's why it was so cheep.
Cheep is my middle name,

I am the Administrator so no problem there and I view everything and I
mean EVERYTHING inc hidden, system and file extensions.
It also means that a task running with administrator authority can 'Deny'
any, and all users, including itself, read/list access to files and
directories.
Also that restriction would apply if you accessed the NTFS partition from
another Windows instance.
And I would definitely check the drive for faults in the indexing area,
space and file allocation tables
Re Ghost - grabbing at straws mode-
but I've already been P'd off by Symantec stuff -
Goback used to ( and may still) insist on keeping it's restore sets on C:
not on the other slower 'archive' drive I wanted it to use
Something running in your system has to be doing the dirty - even if it's
the OS
and even if nobody else is interested, I would like to know What is doing
it!
