What then makes you think that something connected with BitTorrent is
taking up your hard disc space?

A parallel poster has already suggested a command-line way of analysing
your disc usage.  If you use Gnome you can also use the Disk Usage
Analyser to achieve much the same:

Applications => System tools => Disk Usage Analyser

Click on "Scan Filesystem" and leave it for a few minutes.  It will
generate a nice graphical summary of your disc usage and you can drill
down through it to find which directories are taking the most space.

If you have a directory which is taking a lot of space but doesn't seem
to have any large files in it then try "ls -a" to see if there are any
hidden files there.
