Here is a quick addition of about 7 megs of hardisk space. Remove all the
windows *.avi files. These are your tutorial files that you probably are no
longer using. Go to Windows explorer and "find" *.avi check them then
delete.

Actually, a number of programs use *.avi files.  If you follow this

directory.  You can always check, after using "find" as suggested above,
by clicking on the file to see what information it presents.
