When I run the disk cleanup utility, it gets to the
message " Scanning: Compress Old Files" and then hangs
there. I have tried safe mode, and the same thing
happens. Any suggestions?

When i try to run disk cleanup, it displays three progress
bars and the message "compressing files". It does this
indefinitely without ever finishing (ie it hangs). I try
to exit the program by hitting cancel and the progress
window disappears, but in task manager it still says
cleanmgr.exe is using 99% of CPU so it must be getting
really stuck. i have tried getting rid of all my temp
files and caches, etc. also have tried disabling screen
savers and antivirus. any suggestions on what would cause
this and what i can do to fix this?
Thanks!
