can the IIS log files be deleted?

Yes (except the most recent one). Moving them elsewhere is probably better option (just to be able to keep audit trail)

I can move the some where else I have plenty of space on the E drive the most recent one is called W3SVC1 and then there a quite a few other folders in there

You're safe to move these...

i've managed to free up 700 mb could do with some more space really until this new server arrives i've tried all the above any more suggestioins?
cheers

From here on it very much depends on your configuration. If your CRM database resides on the C partition then that might use up a fair bit of space as well. The Spacemonger tool torimar metionned above is a good start to see how the sapce is used.

sorry i dont quite understand it, mounting remote folders i just want a quick fix?

mvgeertruyen: Can I clean out the most recent IIS folder?
There is almost 1Gb in there.

cheers

Yes you can - move the files elsewhere (everything in C:\WINDOWS\system32\LogFiles and the subfolders is safe to delete or better; move elsewhere)

why not delete the E drive and add it to c drive? of course , backup whatever you need on E. then you could have one partition. that would seem simplest to me.
