On my McAfee Anti-Virus, I can schedule a quick disk-clean or run it manually, same thing for Windows Help and Support (under disk clean up, I think....?)

Regarding the Space loss and gain with SP2.
I have a scheduled disk clean up every monday. checked Sunday and found I had lost 11 GB in a week - no downloads !!!
My disk-clean is set to clean the restore points, it ran yesterday, but I only gained a few MB's.
I just done a manual clean up, and regained my 11 GB which is the proof that any space gained with SP2 was a general clean-up and mostly concerned the restore points, just wondering why the scheduled clean-up didn't clean up, but still.....

Theres a section in my Anti-Virus where I can click on -manual disk clean-
I checked in Windows Help/support under disk clean-up, so it's available there as well.
