thanks drequinox - seems to have gone well - 2GB free space now.
However there is a message saying files requiring Windows to work have been replaced by unrecognised versions, need to restore them from origonal CD. Will try that onsite tomorrow

Well, if you listened to drequinox before reading my article, then you have created problems for yourself. $hf_mig$ should be LEFT ALONE.
Windows\system32\logfiles - the sub directories (espically the smtp ones) can fill up with log files which you delete. If exchnage is on C drive, under exchange mail root vs 1 badmail its safe to delete and c:\windows\kb*.log

I specifically said DO NOT delete the $hf_mig$ directory in my above comment.
The disk cleanup did the job but fortunately I had not deleted the hf_mig file so higher points to the others. That article is difficult to understand - saying things like move it to a different spindle. Could do with a simpler guide!
