Um .. this is a bit O/T for full-disclosure, but here goes :

Have you checked the amount of space reserved for your browser cache? In 
the Microsoft world, this is typically set to 10% of a drive's size (not 
free space .. physical size). Go into the properties tab of Internet 
Explorer and set the cache to 1mb, clear out what's in there, and start 
anew.
