You can see how much RAM Firefox is taking up by using pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete and looking for Firefox.exe . Normal usage is probably 60MB to 100MB but some people see usage sky rocket up to 300-400MB, which means there is a memory leak. Some Firefox extensions cause these leaks but Firefox itself can also be the culprit. I have noticed that Firefox 2 is much better with memory leaks than Firefox 1.5. -Ryan A memory leak can be noticed if your memory usage continually climbs.
