    You seriously need to rethink this post - regarding security and being taken seriously.

    I would wait for Firefox 3 to turn up regarding improved memory usage.

    Re: Firefox Memory Optimizer

    There is no problem with memory usage - firefox keeps a large cache of whats happened that session in order to make it quicker to do stuff... You can change this behaviour in the about config page somehow - I can't remember exactly how to do it, but I can find the webpage again if anyone is interested...
