We're running low on disk space on one of our servers, so what I really need is a way of scanning the disk and seeing where all the disk space is being used.

A nice graphical util that can show some reports would be great. That way I can show the IT Manager that we really need an upgrade

Well, I just found where 500Mb went - some muppet has copied the .Net Framework CD onto his desktop.

He's now got a nice big fat NT profile ; I'm away to kick his @rse

Thanks lads,

Stefan
