BTW, Dave, I also use Datek and I keep the site loaded 24x7. I don't trade it actively, but I continually check the real time quotes during the day every trading day. Maybe Datek interacts with IE, or something. I run Netscape 4.5 (and until just a few days ago 4.4). I have not had any memory leak problems I know about, though I admit I had a couple of blue screens an hour or so apart last week. Usually I go a week or 10 days between them. That hasn't recurred, but since I can't explain it I'm worried. That started when I loaded the latest NT 4/WS from the January MSDN CDs (and installed service pack 3). Before that I ran service pack 2 and last January's (i.e., Jan 97) CDs. Will revert as soon as I have a half day to futz around with it. As to cacheable ram, I'm stuck with the same 64 megs. Every now and then somebody tells me the P6 Intel motherboard doesn't have that problem (440FX), but the spec says it does. I put 96mb on the same motherboard at our office and it slowed down immediately. That's subjective, though; can't really prove it. If it's adding up now, Networm has told you the only thing I know how to do. However, SOMEBODY should be showing up using a lot of memory in the VM list, or else you're just plain running too damn many apps <GGG>. Spots
