Hi Kevin, I've got CCleaner on my desktop and thought about running it on the Eee, but there is no room to load it. Can it run from an external harddrive, because that might be the solution?

Have you got a USB Drive? It can be run from there... Are you saying that you have absolutely NO space left on your C: drive ??? Which model of the Eee do you have? http://event.asus.com/eeepc/comparison/eeepc_comparison.htm Have you also tried to do a search on your C: drive for ALL files and then sort them by size to see if there are any LARGE files that can be removed ? I do this all the time as a quick way to regain space !
