    Hamoon,

    I’ve never noticed this problem ever before, nor has any user reported this till date. Do you know which folder within contextual related posts folder created this issue?

    The cache feature doesn’t use the disk for storing files.
    The only issue I see could be with timthumb cache going berserk.

    Please do monitor and let me know if this is happening again over the next week or so?

    it happens again, in 3 hours it make 8gig ! i don’t know how. then i deleted all .txt files in contextual-related-posts/timthumb/cache. then 8gig returns to 0.5mb ! i don’t know how is this possible , i never had this kind of problem with this plugin! but now it’s usage space is 65mb ! i reported this to my hosting provider and they didn’t know how is this possible too, they just put 000 permission to CACHE folder. i don’t know it works or not

    all that .TXT files that i said are just maybe 100kb not 8gig! but when i deleted CACHE folder content, webdisk got empty ! now CACHE folder is empty but still it shows that the contextual plugin folder uses 65mb space! i don’t know where is this 65mb file or files!

    It seems to be a problem with timthumb. I suggest disabling timthumb and checking the usage.

    Another option worth trying is to completely remove the plugin. First deactivate the plugin and then delete it from the Plugins page in your WP-Admin. This should completely delete the folder contextual-related-posts

    It could be possible that timthumb doesn’t have delete access to clean up the cache files.

    i did all these works, i didn’t enable timbthumb , it was OFF always
    and i removed plugin once , and it happend again. now i told this problem to my hosting provider and they said to me that they did some works on server to prevent this problem and i don’t know what are those works.
    i hope it works…
