Arrghhh. What was that program that analyses your HD and shows you graphically what is taking up space? I remember a post on it here but I can't find it for the life of me. Anyone remember?

Nope. That's the not the chap. This was an analyser program that someone posted up which shows you graphically which directories are taking up the most space on your HD. It displayed directories in boxes with sizes proportional to their volume on your HD.

I still use SpaceMonger just about every day mostly to get rid of mods from servers I don't play anymore, or I thought suxored.

Never seen it before, but I really like it. specially the way big files really stand out, and you can zoom in on individual folders.

The mac os x version is called "Disk Inventory X"
A PC one I used ages ago was good but i forget its name.

If no-one gives your an answer to a question you have asked, consider:- Is your question clear.- Did you ask nicely.- Are you showing any effort to solve the problem yourself 

The only thing that bugs me about Space Monger is that if a file is too small, you can see it, but you cannot select it or do anything with it without switching to an ultra high monitor resolution.
