Hello again, Gerry

I'm currently running Firefox/2.0.0.11.

Here are the Virtual Memory top 6:
aawservice.exe 45,524
firefox.exe 45,312
explorer.exe 35,252
svchost.exe 30, 212
searchindexer.exe 21, 944
MsMpEng.exe 20,572
Weather.exe 16,324

For starters, note that weather.exe (Weather System Tray Icon) is
considered adware:

I would uninstall it.

Regarding searchindexer.exe, it might be malware. If not, it's the
Windows Desktop Search 3.01 for Windows XP (KB917013) and you may want
to disable it:

Finally, aawservice.exe is the unfortunate memory-hog process associated
with the latest version of AdAware. It has made for a good number of
unhappy campers. If you wish, you may experiment with a batch file to
make sure it stops running once your scan is finished. See this thread:
