[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1637074"] It sounds like you're not in the habit of actually QUITTING (not closing) programs you're not using. Get in the habit of using command-q when you're done with a program, and keeping just one program at a time open. To find out what's using up the space, download a free program like [URL="http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/19515/grandperspective"]Grand Perspective[/URL] and use it to create a "map" of the drive -- the "biggest chunk" is probably what's eating your space, but I'll bet if you get in the habit of not leaving too many programs open, you'll see that error message a LOT less often.

Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
