Hi,
my computer was getting dangerously close of running out of hard drive space i have removed all unused programmes, cookies and done a disk clean-up. This has freed up a bit but i would like more. Does stuff like this have to be done for each seperate user? and any other suggestions for how to free up space?
thanks

^urgh, if we are talking PC here, you need at least 15% free space for it to run properly.

Maybe you could burn some of your stuff to dvd's and such? Alternately, buy more space..

Was just going to say. I have 1tb storage in my machine, programs/games etc. are getting bigger, you need to move with the times and 60gb is tiny these days!
