Thanks, I've tried in IE under wine, and it uses less memory, then in Firefox (not under wine), so you are right, but my problem is not the amount of memory used, at least not when the application starts. The problem is, that it takes more and more memory, so if I leave even this little test running in the browser (having the button clicked a couple of times), in a couple of hours my system crashes, at least Firefox does.
