I am having problems with my roomates PC. Its an

HP Pavilion Model FX792AA-A2L A66OOF
Intel Pentium Dual Core E2200 CPU @ 2.20Ghz
3.0 GB RAM
64 bit Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2

 Something keeps eating up hard drive space, even at system idle with no programs running and nothing downloading. I watched the amount of hard drive space used go up by a GB at a time.  The last programs I installed were Advanced SystemCare 4 PRO and The Sims Medieval. Used hard drive space after was at 86.7 GB. Its up to 113 GB used now all by itself.

 The only thing that I can think of that might eat up space like that is a worm. I've run numerous scans using Malwarebytes PRO, SuperAntiSpyware (Portable and PRO), AVG 2011 Free and Spyware Terminator w/ WinClam AV integration. All scans come back clean except for Spyware Terminator which keeps labelling the vcomp90.dll and vcomp100.dll files as Trojans. Any suggestions?

Thank-you, running that program now...also, I've run the Spyware Terminator scan as Administrator and it still won't let me remove  the vcomp90 and vcomp100.dll files that it reads as Trojans.
