So i had spyware and malware on my pc the other day, and i made a full scan with microsoft security essentials. It couldn't get rid of the virus so i installed mbam and it got rid of that. So when i had the virus active, i saw a message saying that my hard drive is almost full or something like that. It shouldn't be. Virus filled it up somehow. How do i get rid of those files? Thanks..
