Where'd all my disk space go?

I was converting a graphics file from JPEG to GIF format with Alchemy
and ran out of disk space.  I went to look for the temp file to delete it,
but can't find it.  Somebody once told me that there was a DOS utility to
recover space that didn't show up when you do a DIR, but I can't remember
what it was or how to do it.  Can somebody help me?  Please reply by e-mail,
as I don't generally read this newsgroup.

thanks,

     byron  (:
