    Well, as for me, its "Microsoft Encarta Reference Library 2005" by far. Its an estimated 2.5 GB. But, its worth it; it really comes in handy for Research HW (like I'm doing now).

        Yeah same as Andross, UT 2004 is the biggest thing I ever installed on my HD.

          Either Microsoft office or Macromedia Studio. Though they are made up of several programs each. Warcraft III is also fairly big.

          OK, now I'm actually on my PC, my biggest program is Rise of Nations Gold, it's 1.5gig.
          Office comes next.

            Hmm, I have no HUGE program. Most of my games are wtih 2GBs or less, or on my PS2 :wub:

            I tend to have my hard drive (80GB) filled up with movies etc. And the only real big programs I have are APS, macromedia stuff and stuff of that nature.

            Just looking, Final Fantasy XI takes up 4.27GB, so yeah, thats my biggest :wub:

            And GODAMMIT I hate that I can't play it :P

              I don't know. Probably Counter Strike Source. I don't have any big programs.

              ... Though, I have a lot of Fire Emblem stuff. My 144 gig harddrive was full, and I got half way through deleting some of my unneeded FE stuff and freed up 10 gigabytes. That's only half the stuff I didn't need.

                  No, I don't mean the biggest file on your computer, I mean biggest program installed.
                  To view programs installed, their sizes, or uninstall them, follow these directions if you have a Windows XP or Windows 2000 OS:
                  Go to Start Menu - Control Panel - Add or Remove Programs
                  NOTE: If you use an OS other than WXP/W2000, then I'm sorry, but I dont know how to help you, I only know how to do it with those 2 Operating Systems.

                  Also, for it to work with Windows 2000, you need a certain Service Pack installed (Service Pack 5 I think.) You can download it at Windows Update (link only works with Internet Explorer, Maxthon, and Netscape Internet Browsers.)

                        I'd have to say, Star Wars Galaxies. I didn't have that much space left on my computor and it took up alot, but the game didn't take a long time to install.

                          Or not. I had a lot of **** on FE here. A lot of them were huge bitmaps. I know it still sounds rather large, but it's true.

                            Followed by Gran Prix Legends. My brother plays that and has probably downloaded thousands of track add-ons by now.

                                    I guess mine would now be Counter Strike: Source. I'm too lazy to see how large it is, though.

                                    I should join Procrastinators Anonymous. Their slogan is awesome. "Don't be lazy; procrastinate tomorrow!"
