I'm using XW under Win95 and am experiencing memory leaks. I downloaded
the Win95 upgrade and kernel changes from MSoft website, along with a
memory/CPU monitoring utility. This did not take long, and only involved
a couple of files. According to MSoft, the leaks occur when running
Windows sockets on an extended basis. The kernel change did improve
things a bit. The memory/CPU monitor confirmed a point made here
recently: XW hogs it all the minute it's loaded.
