Storage disappearing by 'Other'

[Sairo]

So I was just checking my used space on my HD and found out that Others is eating my storage.
I don't know what it is or how it happened, but I'm surprised it did because I'm running on a fresh instal of Lion (3 weeks is still fresh right?).
I am new to Mac so I don't know the first place to start looking for all this disappearing storage.

Any help?

What is this "Other" in the storage tab? What is eating up my space? by theSeb

To find out, where you hard drive capacity is being used, you can use the following free applications:

• DiskInventory X
• OmniDiskSweeper
• JDisk Report
• GrandPerspective

Maybe try a combination of several, if you still can't find the "missing" capacity.
