I dont know if this is a virus..
« on: April 09, 2007, 02:57:47 PM »
I constantly get disk cleanup messages saying my hard drive is full, and whenever I get this, I can't stream media, and it gets really annoying because this happens about 10 times a day. I have plenty of space on my hard drive though, so my hard drive is never full, but the messages keep coming up. Anyone know what's wrong?

    I'm using Win98SE, I have made no hardware changes, and this just started happening a few days ago. I have AVG, but that program is useless because it never detects any viruses. But i don't even know if this is a virus yet.

    Do you update AVG regularly?  All I can suggest at the moment is posting a HijackThis log for everyone to take a look at.  Other suggestions should come along shortly.

      This in no way determines that AVG is useless...

      When is the last time you ran disk cleanup, defrag and dskchk on that drive ? ?

      Post the HDD size and amount of free space as Explorer sees it.

      Too many theories, so few facts.
