Looking in my HDD to find where all my space has gone, it turns out that Sopos's temp folder, C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\Temp, consumes over 40GB! Is this normal behavior, and can I safley get rid of it? Quite worrying.
Ubuntu is an ancient African word, meaning: 'I can't configure Debian'.

    Yes just delete it. They have an install folder that can go, but I dont have the same path as you have. Rename it and see what happens, if nothing then it can go. Have XP here.
