Re: Leakage, believe in systray?

<sigh> In theory this sounds great, but if I did that for every
interesting piece of info that came my way each day just for the odd
instance like this one every blue moon, my small apt would have an
entire wall filled up with binders. I'm not kidding.

Interesting note but not realistic for me, however, good to pass on to
others.

However, that still doesn't address the issue at hand. As always,
despite posting in an ng, will keep looking. <sigh>

Thanks anyway.

The cure for memory leakage is simple. Here is what I do:
1. Get thee a 3-ring binder
2. Install tabbed indexes labeled with appropriate subject, such as
"motherboard" and "memory".
3. When you run across material that you think might be useful, print the
material.
4. Put your printed material into the 3-ring binder after the appropriate
index.
Good luck

I'm sorry re vagueness of subject line, but I don't remember full
details of what I read at least a couple of months ago re some sort of
memory leakage, or a buildup of some kind because XP doesn't properly
empty some sort of cache - believe it was an icon cache and I think it
had to do with the systray. Again, I might be completely wrong in how
I remember this. I read of lot of things like this and don't keep
everything I read because it's not pertinent to me. Well have since
then worked on two XP computers and one is a very old and buggy
installation where we don't have the CD. Until my brother-in-law can
wipe the drive and install another OS for which there is a CD, looking
to see how to optimize performance as much as possible.

Ran malware removal routines, etc., as per Castlecop and although my
dad's PC is running better, it's still slow. Defrag and chdsk are
next (which I didn't know how to do at the time and it was a short
trip) but also this "memory leakage" would be good to track down
solution for.

Thanks for any help in advance! :oD
