RAM Management Tool

I had Cacheman XP but it's recent version SUX so does anybody know of good RAM management tools that can free RAM and lower RAM useage for sigular applications like explorer.exe or  McShield.exe?

ram freeing apps are snake oil, just so you know. you're only hurting your performance. if you want to decrease explorer kill it and reboot it.

These tools are retarded. Don't use any, unless you like forcing working sets to reduce, producing swapping, and forcing Windows to trash its system cache, producing slow I/O. Anybody who uses them clearly doesn't understand how a modern OS works.

If you need more RAM:
- Use Windows 2000
- Don't use MSIE, use Opera
- System tray icons aren't cool. Really. No, really. You don't need a crap collection there. Close all that damned shit for god's sake.
- Set unnecessary services to Manual.
- Don't run useless background processes. Close your crap once you're done with it, rely on the system cache to reopen it fast should you need it again.
- Avoid crap like Nokia mobile software etc.
- Buy more RAM.

Ok, thanks for the info but the other REAL killer has been McShield.exe, do you have any advice for that as well?

Files are clean, I've installed them on 5 computers. I have been using NOD32 for 2 years to search, download and install hundreds of cracks and patches and have yet to receive a virus.

McAffee is a good scanner, but it is a heavyweight like KAV and should not be used in a home environment where security does not trump performance. NOD32 receives some of the highest ranking results even with almost ZERO performance overhead.

There is no other antivirus program out there that performs like this. The day Eset closes, gets bought, or NOD32 begins to fail will be a black day.

It's secure by default but can be tweaked to access-scan on-demand. You should also disable DMON and EMON. Don't be overwhelmed by the UI if you're a noob. If you don't want to touch it, you don't have to. You can install it and forget about it. I recommend the "silent" option under System Setup which will remove all visbility of its existence but the task icon.

Of course, if you're on someone else's computer or you don't want to use a crack.. This has been a total waste of my time. :( Your choice.

No, no! Thank you! I'll install it tonight and see how it works. Thank you!

No problem, always happy to be able to recommend it for the right situations.

This is an step by step, image by image guide if you have any trouble. It's pretty long, but it covers everything and you can just scroll through it to get some general ideas.

NOD32's Achille's heel is its learning curve. People are too used to option-less AV. Most of the options don't even need to be touched, but it's worth knowing you have them.

Well, I installed it and it's scanned my hard drives (internal and external) right now. Just curious, does this also pick up spyware/adware as well as viruses? What about trojans?

Trojans are pretty much synonymous with viruses now, and adaware detection is enabled by default.
