hard drive problem

[Steve]

There is a conflict between how much of my hard drive is
actually used, and how much windows reads as used. I have
a 25 GB hard drive, and windows says I only have 600 MB
free, but there are actually only 18 GB of files on the
drive(including hidden files). The problem occured when I
deleted about 6 GB of files to free up space. The files
were deleted, but the drive did not show any more free
space. Anybody know what's up with this?

Is your recycle bin empty.
