i've been noting lately that my computer is getting really slow and that it is using the harddrive a lot (using Win XP Pro), had a look around for something that was using the hd and finally noticed that the pagin file is used constantly for swopping, looked at the task manager and noticed that by far the most memoryusing proram is Ad-Watch. have been looking at the start up for a couple of days and AAW starts low on memory to slowly rise to about 127 Mb but once i had it at around 437Mb's. Why is this happening and what can be done to minimise the memory use?

Hi BoxBeater
Let us know which security software is installed and running on your system.
I can't reproduce it. Have a look this screenshot.
