I was on my moms laptop , and I happened to be on myspace. What I noticed, is that after being on for about 5 minutes, my memory usage shot up from 47% too 89% and then 90+ hovering around 95% mem usage.

This doesn't seem to do this on other sites, i can leave a yahoo window up or something similar up for hours without any issue.

It's a stock gateway laptop, M-1624 , running Vista ; 2 gigs of RAM ;AMD Turion 64x2 TL-60 at 2.00 GHz

It's not that it's a major issue, just an annoying one that I don't really understand or have a solution too.
At first I thought it ight be malware, but I've successsfully scanned and cleaned the hell out of this thing with Malwarebytes ; and i've run a norton scan or two.

Any ideas as to what the issue might be? Any solutions ? thanks guys.
