I use a program called WIMR, or Where Is My Ram (and Flash Rom on Storage card, and I'd assume internal storage too). It'll show how much memory is used in each folder and once in the folder it'll show how much memory (in kilobytes/megabytes/smart optimized) is used in each nested folder and organizes files by largest to smallest. Quite useful when I wonder what the heck happened?

Also try running Cleaner+, useful if you used PocketIE in the past.

I think DEXplor is better for this than almost anything else.

Each directory contains a bar graph indicating what percentage of space that directory is consuming. It is relative to drive the directory is in, so it will show you the proper consumption for Main Memory, Storage Cards and even the internal Flash Disc.

The free version of DEXplor has this functionality.

The Registered Version allows you to search for files with around a dozen different attributes, including a minimum and / or maximum file size that you can specify.

The graph for Program Files shows that that directory is consuming around 20% of the Storage Memory. The Storage Card graph shows the storage card is around 33% full. The blue graphs down below are attached to files inside of a ZIP, and they indicate how well each file compressed (compression ratio). This screenshot is a bit busy, because I tried to show as many different things in a single screen as possible.

Now if you were to open up the Program Files directory you would see how much each individual directory is consuming, etc.

Ah, IE temp files! Of course that is what it was. Thanks!

Is there anyway to cap the amount of space IE will use for temp files? Or can any third party browser do this?
