    Did you reduce the amount of content revisions kept on the SEPM?

    Reduce the "no of content revisions to keep" value. Then run liveupdate manually and try. Even if you reduce the value, until the liveupdate runs the updates will not get removed from content folder.

    If my above suggestion not helps it must be due to corrupted virus definitions.

    What do you consider 'excessive disk usage', and how large is the hard drive on which the SEPM is installed?

    Which version of SEP are you using?
