Does this sound too aggresive an email to send to user(s)?...

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.
 
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

Our school did a similar thing

Backups
Keep your movies and shit on externals so they can't complain
 
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).

I suppose I should look into some of that stuff.
 
Dude, this popi act is scary!
We kinda in the it and healthcare, and the laws around patient information is scary.

Yep, I deal with Pharmaceuticals quite a bit and they are anal retentive to begin with and have laws coming out of all orifices, same as when you deal with banks (PCI-DSS, Sarbanes–Oxley, etc, etc)

Take away admin rights, configure roaming profiles and folder redirection, enable file screen policy on roaming/redirected target, disable all but the required USB ports (usually 2), disable on board sound...sit in your office and play games the rest of the year
 
We had one for sorrow, two for joy
Three for his old girl and four for the boys
Five for silver and six for gold
Then we lose control
So we leave his keys behind the bar
Because he's too drunk to drive his car
We're on the backseat of this taxi
And I don't know where the hell we are

But I wish you were here
Twisting my arm
And bending my ear

Whispering grass don't tell Therese
Sister Rantzen or her majesty's police
I'm terrified, intoxicated, starry eyed and bollock naked
Child bearing, adult rated
Thoroughly re-educated
And I wish you were here

And I don't know where the hell we are

And bending my ear
