Well, I spoke to soon. It worked OK for a good while then it started creeping up again. After another round of google searches, startpage actually, I found where someone posted that having a slideshow causes this. I switched from slideshow to something else and sure enough, it hasn't hogged up memory, yet anyway. So, disable slideshow until this gets fixed and at least you don't have to worry about it hogging up every last bit of memory. Still, that thing does use quite a bit of ram. It's not in the area of Firefox or anything but it uses a good bit. Actually, in top it is usually listed right below Firefox and Seamonkey. In the past tho, it just used the same stable amount. ;-) Now let us pray that there is a fix soon enough. I miss my slideshow. :( Dale :-) :-)
