Please note; I have noticed that the total size of your Documents folder is excessively large and recommend you utilize better management. If nothing is done about this within a reasonable time, action will be taken to minimize this folder size at our discretion.
Does this sound too aggresive an email to send to user(s)?...

Don't ask just delete all the movies and crap
that's what my old flatmate did. chick kept phoning him cause her Win XP was slow and complaining about disk space. so after repeatedly telling her to clean up her Documents folder and her yelling at him that she did, he remoted onto her system and went "oh look, here's about 100gb worth of downloaded movies that's not allowed on your work machine... *DELETE*"
needless to say she didn't phone back again

Problem as well is that backups are my responsibility and in our line of business, information is extremely sensitive. With things like the POPI act and such, I am not allowed to backup some data and you are not allowed to store personal data on your work computers (though some leniencies are allowed of course).
Dude, this popi act is scary!I suppose I should look into some of that stuff.
