Disk Usage Incorrect

I have an approximately 110 GB drive. Both the Finder and the command line show that I've used all but about 1.2 GB; however, when I add up the file sizes individually, they only add up to about 62GB. I've tried determining this using a number of different methods (du, OmniDiskSweeper, etc.) and they all report ~110GB of used space, and ~62GB of actual space used by the files on my system.

At this point, I don't know how to proceed any further. I either need to determine what is taking up the remaining 48GB of missing space, or determine why all of my tools think I'm using 110GB of space.

I've searched far and wide on Google to no avail; perhaps I'm using the wrong terms.

Best, Eric

P.s. The link is a screenshot (12KB) from OmniDiskSweeper, which clearly shows the problem: http://www.ampede.com/disk-space.png
