I have cleaned my HD, reinstalled the system twice, gotten a new computer once and it continues. Obviously the problem is somewhere in my data. I have mostly restored each time from my time machine. I should say that I personally have not done these sweeps. They have been done by the Mac "geniuses". Now I am going to get to the bottom of this myself. Any suggestions?

I saved almost 2 gigs after deleting firmware updates alone. I also really liked your Spotlight mini tip. One of the things I most want to use Spotlight for is to search System Files and the like, but Spotlight won't do it by default. It would be great if you could make this a permanent preference and be able to search System Files from the menubar. Cheers. That’s excellent advice.
