Looks like ApexDC.exe 1.2.0 keeps increasing it's Mem Usage over time.  After 1 day, it's up to 175,000K.  Last time I had to shut it down it was using 500,000K.  Is this normal?  Fwiw, it's not hashing or anything.

I tried to upload a Task Manager screenshot, but it didn't work :)

Sure, no doubt, there are memory leaks (most complex software have some) but just knowing that they are there doesn't really help in tracking them down :)

is there some way i can assist in tracking it down?  clearly i can't keep 1.2.0 final running if it eats up all available memory after a week.  i've asked around and searched the forums, and it seems this problem is particular to me, so it could just be a fluke with my system (xp sp2).  I suppose i can use 1.1 in the meantime, which i was more than happy with btw!

I spoke too soon ... problem is still there.  I'll let you know if i find out any clues as to what could be causing this.
