A couple weeks ago I reformatted my computer and reinstalled my OS (win98se) and hardware drivers like normal. I also updated IE to 6.0 and windows installer to 2.0. After that I installed my normal most used programs such as office 2000, cute ftp, some cd burning software, etc. Now my problem that I am encountering is this. Whenever I download any large files over ftp (I've tried multiple ftp clients) or when I am burning cd's it seems like I have this massive memory leakage (I have 512, usually 400 free at least and when I'm done 0) and my CPU spikes from normal usage to 100% seemingly on a cycle of about every 3-5 seconds. I would like to note that I have no other programs running when I am using this stuff, and am not using any new hardware or programs since my previous reformat just before christmas. I was wondering what sort of things could be causing this, and if any of you might be able to shed some light on this.
