I had experienced a similar issue on a network with over 1000 pc. It was being caused by a error with Symantch antivirus server, repeatedly pushing out the same antivirus def files. Server was rebuilt, antivirus clients were re-deployed and issue was resolved. Another issue we had was offline files not syncing properly with file server,  when a clients on portable machines machine joins the network, creating multiple duplicates. I would recommend using a tool like &quot;Tree Size pro, to give you reports &quot;on directory level&quot; in realtime  on disc usage on clients machines on your network. It will point you in the right direction<div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Dear skunks,<br>If you remember a few weeks ago I raised an issue regarding storage space in a clients network. The thing is that nearly all the computers appeared to have full disks. The network is about 10 users, all running Windows 7, with Kaspersky Internet security up to date and the scans done. Now it appears that the HDDs are actually not full. Majority of them are 320 GB HDD and they would show that they have like 1.5 or 7 GB free, though you cant really tell what is taking the space. Then, after some time, some of the PCs go back to show the real status, like 70 Gb free etc. A PC would be showing that its full in the morning, then by lunch time it shows the real status. I suspect some viral activity or malware. Anyone seen this before? A bit strange I would say.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br clear="all">
