Not sure this to be a virus/trogen issue, but after picking up several trogens at a site last week, and cleaning them (at least think they are all gone)my HD usage is crazy.

My HD was like about 20% usage and now showing 96%. I have seached programs etc and cannot find the culprit.

Please help. Running Vista home.

NOTE, this is actual HD space not just usage. My PC is showing my HD is 96% full.

OK OK....I downloaded a tree program and the large usage was coming from DMP files in my anti-virus program.

I deleted these and much better now but what could have caused this?
