Re: Memory Leak?

Dave,
A process called RouterNT.exe is the one taking wild swings in memory. This
is a process used by our anti-virus software (Sophos). They claim that it
is an issue with the network card that is causing this.
The KB article that I referred to talks about a memory leak with RPC calls.
So my assumption is that Sophos is making many RPC calls, and the memory
leak referred to by the article is then causing the memory issues. My only
concern is that I don't want to install a hotfix if this isn't the issue.
The KB article specifically refers to Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM),
and I'm wondering if this could be caused by the enterprise anti-virus
software we have installed as well.
Thanks,
Rob
