It looks like a problem several people are experimenting.
Lately, someone exposed a link between this problem and Agnitum Outpost
(a firewall) that seems to forget to free some resources. This sounds
plausible, from my point of view, as I also have Outpost and I'm
experimenting this problem.

[BTW, Rampage was evoked as a possible workaround, but it had no
positive effect on my system.]


HTH,
