I would just like to know how much memory NIS/NAV 2009 uses in other computers.
Here is mine . Using NIS 2009 in WinXP with 1gig ram. By
the way, NIS is idle.

Your numbers seem about average. My NIS 2009 displays numbers that are quite close to yours during idle.
But what is going on with Firefox? 103,688K? What version of FF are you running?
That's really eating some resources.
I am using FF version 3.03. I think the high memory usage is caused by the add-on, Tab Mix Plus. Also, there are lots of tabs open at that time.
After uninstalling Tab Mix Plus, FF went down to 80k mem usage. Yes, it is still high. But I think, I cant do anything about it. Just a question (I hope this is not considered as Off-topic), how much is your FF mem usage, btw? Thanks.
You see that jusched.exe ? That’s your Java updater. hahaha. I usually kill that thing. I take it out of the registry with HijackThis but that’s just me. I think you can also do something with it in the control panel. I like very few processes running. Also see the ctfmon.exe ? I think that’s some kind of useless microsoft program. I kill that one too. You could probably load up your pc in safemode and change the name of that file and it won’t run anymore or kill it from the registry with hijackthis. The less processes you have running, the easier it is to see that something is intruding in your system. I usually keep the taskbar in the tray and you can easily see what’s happening.

I am also using FF 3.03 with only a few add-ons and nothing else and it runs around 41,000K.
Hope that helps.
My memory usuage is about the same as well - 4,000K and 3,000K.
NIS09 uses ~18k idle for me.
I noticed something about N360 and NIS09. Why is there only one ccSVChst process on Vista with N360 and NIS09; while there are 2 ccSVChst processes on XP?

Yes. I remvoved the jusched through the control panel. I unchecked the "check updates atuomatically" and now it's gone.
I checked my norton memory usage during scanning and it was pretty high. There are 2 ccsvchost and if I add those two up, it would reach to 60k.

My Norton CPU usage is down to 10 MB. Is this a recent installation? Norton does a lot of idle time scans building up a database (so to speak) of safe files. I’d recommend you simply leave your computer alone for about 15 minutes and see if Norton can complete the scan, which should release a lot of memory. Or you might try running your own full scan.

No.This is not a recent installation. I had NIS for about 3 weeks now.
That scan was a manual full scan during its first 10 seconds. I immediately got its screenshot. Maybe it was high because it was during the first few seconds. Maybe. idk.
Here is mine. I love how light NIS is. I never know its there.

Often times with N360, its memory and CPU usage would spike for periods of time, lagging me slightly. Afterwards, it would report that a virus had been detected and disinfected, and everything returned to normal. I do not know if this is the case with NIS09 though.
Also, has anyone noticed the fact that there are 1 ccsvchst processes in Vista and 2 in XP? I have a theory; looking at Diesel's screenie, there is 1 ccsvchst and 1 catorgorized beneath it. Could Vista be considering it as 1 process instead of 2 like XP? However, on Vista with N360 idle mem. usage was ~1.5 and ~8 scanning. On XP it hovers around ~22 mb.

WOW. Yours is so light.
I am not on Vista. I hate Vista. I am on XP. Both my machines.
Vista has two ccSvcHst processes too. One is a system service in Session 0, the other a Session 1 (i. e. in userspace, but with eleveated privilege) process.
Hello Tech0utsider,
Make sure you check Show Processed from All Users, and you'll see the other ccSvcHst process.
Mine starts out low but it continually creeps up as the days go by between reboots. After a week or so it's gobbling up >350MB of RAM Here's mine after 4 days up:
You are obviously looking at the wrong column, your capture shows a usage of RAM that is even below the advertised tiny values, a 'whopping' 6 MB of RAM.
Speaking of RAM usage, I would also use this opportunity to lavish some praise on the Symantec's coding team.
It is not easy to write code that manages memory well and they have succeded just beautifully, NIS occasionally takes some RAM to do its business, but when it's done it releases it impeccably, and goes back to its modest 'cruising' values of 6-8 MB. No memory leaks whatsoever!
So, congratulations, you deserve it!
W/ Kaspersky 7:
- 2 processes
- 1 8mb and one 56mb =\
What does Kaspersky have to do with this thread?
