Will definitely check on JDiskReport; by the name of the app, I am guessing its a Java App, hopefully the UI isn't too sluggish :) Yes Abhishek, CCleaner does a pretty good job in recovering disk space.

The unique feature in WinDirStat is the "TreeMap"; it shows the big files instantly without me needing to dig through the directories :). Say with foldersize, it might show one directory taking 10GB, but I do need to traverse the directory tree to find the "culprit" file/folder.
