i tried this using 'BLACK VIPER's' suggestions on profiles and set this for "safe" using his guidelines and when i am connected and running one ie window it is showing using 91% memory usage, that seems pretty high, is there anything I can do to lower THAT value . I went to services to see what was running and I counted 31 out of I don't know how many. wish there was more I could get rid of >>>>>>>>>>.......thanks for any thoughts or ideas ect.\\
