    I own a Linux CentOS VPS and 98% of my 5GB of space is used!

    I use my VPS for proxies--the actual files for the site is very small. Could someone explain why my space keeps getting used up and where can I go to remove all the added junk that I don't need?

    Hey circus, circus.

    How long have you had the vps?

    It's probably log files. Especially statistical software. i.e. Awstats, Analog, Urchin... If you're using cPanel you can login ftp, head on over to the tmp directory and delete: awstats, analog, urchin, etc... You may want to back up the data first.
