I have a Windows 2000 server that was hacked. The OS partition is on a 4
gig drive. The OS and profiles take up about 1.5 gig. When I look at the
drive properties, it says I only have 80 mb free. That means someone is
storing almost 3 gig of stuff on my omputer. I have used every tool and
command line I can to find the data, but nothing will read the directory
structure. All attempts come back displaying just the data that was
original to the system. The hackers must have done something to the system
to hide" their data from anything that reads NTFS. I also cannot empty my
recycle bin. It tells me that one of the folders is not empty. When I look
at that folder nothing is in it.

Does anyone have an idea on how to access this data so I can find it and
delete it from my system. As of now, I am looking at the format/reload
method, but I would rather not do that.

Thanks in advance.
Rick
