The hd on my wife's computer will periodically become suddenly
 full. It is a 4.2 gig drive partitioned into c (2.0 gig used as boot,
 program installations etc.), d(1.5 gig used primarily for data storage
 and files ) and e for her copy of win95c. The C; drive is about half
 full  when booted up but after some inconsistent length of time (an
 hour or two or a day or two) the properties of this drive show that it
 is full and she needs to re-boot to get anything to function. My quess
is that somehow the swap file has expanded to take over the entire
 capacity of the drive/partition. Is this what is happening and if so how
 do I fix it?
 TIA
