Try Taskinfo from http://www.iarsn.com. I was going to suggest Process Explorer from sysinternals.com but it doesn't give detailed memory usage info for Win9x. Taskinfo is expiring trialware/shareware with nags but should be able to show the problem area during the free trial.

This tends to slow things down a fair bit. Usual slow downs are when surfing the net with IE. Machine has Trend's PC-Cillin Internet Security 2006 installed and up to date, and the machine is up to date with windows updates. I've done a repair on IE also, with no joy. -- Harondel J.
