If I close allo the windows and try to open firefox again I am told it is already running. I have to kill it manually almost every time.<br>
<br>To add to that, I usually close the process when it is using about or over 1Gig of RAM. The thing is after FF7 it was supposed to clear it's unused mem chunks more efficiently, I don't see that happening though.... When firefox starts is shows about 150-200 megs depending on the tabs I open on startup. When I close it, no matter how long I wait it still uses 1Gig. I closed out all my tabs before closing firefox, and I also waited before closing firefox. Also the GC and GC+CC and Use the memory buttons don't do anything for me.<br>
<br>Actually looking at it right now I think there might be a memory leak, as I just sat here and did nothing but watch Windows Task Menager show firefox going from about 260Megs to 288Megs and it is still climbing.<br><br>
I am kinda new to this whole nightly email thing, so I'm sorry if this was out of place.<br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Cheers, <br>Michael Rabinovsky<br>
