Another hidden GEM for tracking folder sizes is an application called WinDirStat.
This is similar to FolderSize in features. Download from the following link. http://sourceforge.net/projects/windirstat/files/latest/download

Its a whopping 640KB in size.

This is a great little APP and one as an Administrator of multitude of servers and thousand of users, one I find useful when ever space becomes an issue. You can click on the colours to drill down to the files that are taking up the space. There is also a nice built in function for clean, cmd prompt. And great find.
