Re: Why is winlogon taking too much memory?

You should have only one winlogon.exe process running unless you are using
Terminal Services. In which case you'll get an additional winlogon.exe
process for each terminal session. So, who's connected in remotely?

I have this problem too with 2 of my Dell PowerEdge Windows 2003 SP1
machines. I'm running ASP.NET web services on them and winlogon.exe is
eating up over 400 MB. I disabled my virus protection, patrol monitoring
agents, etc. in hope to free up this service's memory but it didn't help. I
have noticed a lot of open connections to my SQL server though. Could this
cause the problem?

Any ideas?
