Really helpful answer, Spots. Once again, you and Networm make my life easier. :) I had forgotten that virtual memory was displayed in a seperate column, and not included by default. And I'd neglected to figure out what the "commit charge" meant at all. (Task manager sure is a nice little tool, by the way. I love the ability to monitor and even kill rouge programs or processes.) Now it does look like the memory amounts are adding up. Were I running a system with more than 64 megs cachable RAM (TX chipset), I would have upgraded by now. But I understand that NT loads from the top of the memory down, and hence I'd take a substantial performance hit if I entered the non-cachable range of memory. So I'm seeing if I can "scrimp" by with 64 megs without it affecting performance much. I think that if I can get the observed leaks fixed, I'll be in good shape. Thanks again, Dave
