Cleaned the disk 2 times; i don't have anything in my system restore to delete; thanks for the netcache idea, it helped to recover 386MB; temporary files also gone; recycle bin always emptied and no Neil Lowe, i don't have Flight simulator X.
It helps obviously. It gives more space but that free space is eaten with time and think i know why now. I passed these last hours searching for strangely big folders in my PC because that eaten space should be somewhere. I finally found the Windows Live messenger folder with 2.67 GB! Inside Windows Live/messenger there were hundreds of notepad files with weird things written and each one occupying 10.8MB. I deleted them but i could see them coming and coming. Stopping it was easy, just by closing Messenger. If it is a virus it's a very weird one and i hope Avast is enough to find and destroy it. Just in case i'm buying an external hard drive...
Those cleaning softwares can come very handy for my PC, thanks i'll give it a try
Thanks for everyone's help i appreciate
I hope this helps someone with similar problems as i had.
