Dunno if you care or not but I'm gonna tell you anyway.

8-)

Umm, the other day I installed a program called PrevX on my machine and it's supposed to be like Adaware and Spybot. It's prolly more along the lines of Windows Defender from Microsoft because if it finds something suspicious it alerts you that something has changed on your machine. The program itself seems to work fine I guess but I was starting to get that warning message about my virtual memory being low and I was like WTF? I did the CTRL-ALT-DELETE thingy and checked the performance and the memory being used was up around the 3.4gig mark. So I checked the process tab as well and I couldn't see anything in there that looked out of place.

So to cut a long story short, I deleted the last lot of programs I had installed and realized it was this PrevX program that was owning my virtual memory. So if you're thinking of installing this software I would be very wary because it seems to eat up memory like a two dollar hooker eating cock. Now that I've deleted it, my machine sits around the 600meg mark where it should have been to begin with.

The end!

Yeah, I've tried this software too. Avoid it like the plague.
