      well guess wat i went to the link u posted and since my antivirus isnt working properly any more and as stated on one of the steps i had to download a new working anti virus i uninstalled my current antivirus which was kasperky antivirus and it solved the problem!!!! i am suprised that a simple antivirus program would be filling up my hard drive!! i am still wondering why it would be filling up my hard drive?? but everything is back to normal i guess i just need a new anti virus now.
