Internal storage mysteriously diminishing

Pretty recently I noticed my internal memory was staying at about 30-35. I tried clearing a few things & even deleted some stuff in hopes of freeing more (I already use a task manager for running programs & I always immediately move ALL of my programs to SD card), but still didn't help much at all. Then in last few days my internal has even gotten alot less. I haven't added anything else and I've made sure to clear every cache I can find in my programs. Even when I start my phone it only has approximately 22free now. What is my best way to fix this problem?

Oh and its been rooted with using Terminal Emulator. Ive understood that is the easiest/best way to fix it but I dunno if that is correct and I don't know what is safe to delete or what to do

It's a regular problem with the MT, I've found that it's the 3G, apparently one of your apps is downloading in the background to temp memory. I've found that if you switch the airplane mode on you dont have the problem AND your battery life improves ridiculously. If you wanna see which apps are doing the autostart in the background, I've found GO Taskmanager to be awesome, it shows you the 'user processes' auto starting apps and there's a Clear all that shuts down everything that isnt a system app. Hella useful.
