Folder Size

This is a keeper.  8)

No installation, just unzip and run. A stand-alone app so it's great for the thumb drive.

Helps you figure out where all that hard drive space has gone on your computer. Visually displays the size of each folder in the form of a bar graph… click a folder bar and it will drill down and show sizes of folders within.

I guess windirstat is kind of a storage hog at a whopping 636KB! :P
(hint: after installing it, copy the exe to a flash drive and run it from there on any pc)

Nice one Broni, even smaller then Folder Size :) Although I still like Folder Size better because it will go to the folder in question.

Here's another, more robust one... http://www.foldersizes.com/index.htm
I actually like this one best, even though it's a 6mb install and $50 for the license. (15 day trial) I might ask the boss if I can buy it. :)
