Ok well my computer is running out of space so I deleted stuff but the number of MB in my free space went even lower when it should be increasing.

If you computer has less than 4GB left, windows is probably increasing the size of the pagefile. You shouldn't stop it from doing that. It could also be system restores, go to start>all programs>accessories>system tools>disk cleanup. Go to the "more options" tab. Press the third button, and the system restores will be deleted. I also recommend you use jdiskreport:

which will find big files. Don't delete things if you don't know what they are, jdiskreport *will* show files that can permanently ruin your windows installation if deleted.
