With all features turned on to maximum the memory consuption is about 80MB od Virtual memory. This can slow down memory-needed computers a lot. Solution: Buy another memory module or: Tur off Anti-Spam protection (-25MB); Turn off Mail monitor (-50MB!). But be careful, as you are turning off features, you are speeding up computer but, also, you are more vurneable to mail viruses and spam mails.

...also used to check that the web pages you access do not have malicious embedded ActiveX or Java code which could harm your PC or infect it with viruses. So if you're reading this, you're looking at webpage, and that's why it's using so much memory.
