laura_inthesky Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 After a while of having fairly low harddrive space left, i finally decided to see what was causing the problem, and found this... This is a screenshot from my add/remove software menu. I have a 80gb harddrive, 30gb is music and about 2gb of games. Dunno how much XP takes up itself but I have no idea what this 'Search Plugin' could be, and espcially at 48gb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Looks like an adware thing that takes up all your free space. I would delete it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laura_inthesky Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 48Gbs! That canne be right. thats excatly what i thought, since my internet provider only lets me download 15gb a month i know it cant b anything i downloaded and so my only assumption was that it is some kind of Windows file or something. Im not so sure now as it has risen to 50gb. Nothing came up on any antivirus scans so im a little unsure wether to remove this or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
