I don't know of any Windows utilities; however, if you can boot your install disk and open a Terminal, or use the HFS+ support in some Linux emergency disks, you should be able to use the "du" command to see what's using disk space. Use "cd" to change into the root directory of your disk and then type:

Code:
du -s * | sort -n
This will create a list of the files and directories in the current directory, sorted by size, with the largest files and directories at the bottom. If the biggest disk space hogs are directories, you can cd into them and repeat this process until you find out what's chewing up so much disk space.
