Re: Internet Browsing causing memory leaks?

Sounds like you have so much memory and so little tasks that Windows is trying to use it where ever it can. I would not worry about it.

In using MSN EXplorer 9.5 dial-up I noticed that after 3-4 hours online that my available ram (1 GB installed) reduced to only 300 MB available. My system after restart shows 590 MB free in System Information, and Task manager shows a Commit/Charge of 375 MB for 48 processes. After 3-4 hours online System Information shows only 300 MB free, and Task Manager shows a Commit/Charge of 525 MB with about 30 of the 48 processes showing 10-30 MB above the amount of memory allocated to each process just after restart. Is this a svchost.exe related problem? Remote Procedure Call problem? Should I just wait for the next service pack to see if it clears up the problem? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
