Hey guys, I found out the issue I was having in this thread:
http://forums.x10hosting.com/free-hosting/57121-deleted-file-still-taking-up-space.html

When I am using the file manager in cPanel to upload files and the connection times out, the space is still being used although nothing has been uploaded. I found this out because I had a file timeout when I was uploading it and the space is being used but no file exists.

I have since started to use an actual FTP and everything has been running smooth.

Is there any way to have the space (probably 40-50mb now) freed up/temporary upload file deleted?

Thanks

Just delete the folder, if it is only a folder for incomplete data.

The problem is that I can't see a folder storing any incomplete data. If I could, I would have deleted it. There are other files in there so deleting the folder isn't much of an option right now.

I removed the files. It can take a bit for cPanel to update the disk usage since the way I removed them is not tracked.
