18 GB is the minimum you want at any time.

Hi Limnos
My point is that the HD is getting full with something a cannot find i have nothing on it no photos no movies no music and out of the 120GB what i have on the HD is ZERO now and what is the most strange over nigt this last 18GB just disappeared
Omnidisksweeper is not showing you where the disk space is going? Have you tried it?
Have you restarted the computer? In Safe Mode?
Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? (Mac OS X) - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
Safe Boot takes longer than normal startup - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1884
Thank you Limnos Omnidisksweeper did help i got back over 100GB 🙂 very nice of you Thank you one more time
Seba
