Hi,

I have a windows xp pro SP2 with all updates and patches.

After 8-10 hours the computer freeses and I receive error 2019 in de
event log.

I checked task manager and the memory grows at 15MB/hour.
When I check the Proces tab I see no special memory grow.

I tried poolmon and see that the bytes of IRP and IO tags getting
higher and higher.

And what now?
What are these tags and how can I see what is using them?

Thx.

In the Process tab in Task Manager click twice on the "Mem Usage"
column header. That will sort the list into descending order based
on memory usage, with the highest usage items at the top. That may
show you something that is not readily apparent from an unsorted list.

What antivirus and antispysware software do you have installed? This
type of behavior is often associated with a malware infestation of
some kind. Try getting a second opinion by doing a free online scan
at one of the following sites:
Bit Defender http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html
Trend Microhttp://housecall.trendmicro.com
Kaspersky Online Scannerhttp://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner
Panda ActiveScanhttp://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan
WindowSecurity.com TrojanScanhttp://windowssecurity.com/trojanscan

Good luck

Ok, thanks all.

I found it, some old never used software service.

And what was that "old never used software service"?
