WinXP filesystem error? HELP!

[Devon]

i was using winzip the other day backing up a collection
files and such, about 3.5 gb worth. after doing so i
found that i had some how lost 58 gb of space because what
was once 166gb is now 108gb. im running under winxp pro
w/ ntfs file system the drive on which this occured on a
200gb western digital 8mb cache special ed. I defragged,
ran scandisk, rebooted,checked temp folders and everything
else i could think of, but i still can't figure out where
those 58 gb went! please help! ^_^
