Crazy High Amount of RAM Used By Firefox!

[kumarmohit]

No I do not think it can be a spyware becuase I do not use except Internet Explorer for anything except Windows Update, I do not use the computer as an Administrator but as a limited user, I do not click anywhere before I check where the link leads to in the status bar, I am the only person using my laptop so some one else making a mess is out of question.

An even if all fails, there is still Avast (and Bit Defender free )which is able to take care of unwanted things happening on computer. Finally, this is only the problem with ffx running.

Sorry did not get you! If you want to know why I am not using the computer as an Administrator, it is becuase this is a great contributor in overall system security. Not many types of malware can install without my knowledge when I use a computer in Limited user mode.

I hate the installation thing! if something can be run as portable app, I would not have to install all softwares every time I reinstall Windows so going to an installable version is out of question.

Upgrade to Firefox 3 Firefox 3 Website
Maybe portable programs are supposed to take up that much, so don't use it portable. Just install in your hard drive.
