Suspicious of my Hard Drive Free Space

My hard drive size is approximately 105 gigs. When I open my computer and look at the hard drive properties, it says that I am currently using 83 out of 105 gigs. I have been suspicious of this because I really don't think I am using that much space. I have looked at the different file properties inside my hard drive and they don't seem to add up to nearly 83 gigs. I then installed Treesize and scanned my hard drive with that...and it says that there are only about 40 gigs being used. I was wondering why the hard drive properties says that it is about twice as full as any other method I try calculates it to be. I used disk cleanup and defragmented a few days ago with no real noticeable changes in free hard drive space. I have also ran scans with spybot and avast antivirus and did not find anything.

My laptop is an IBM T61 Intel Core2 Duo CPU T7500 @ 2.20GHz, 2 gigs RAM, 32-bit Vista Business Service Pack 1.

Thanks
