|  blasted Firefox!!
I tell you what FF is really starting to get under my nerves. Using up 650MB of Resources??!!?? 
Now it is up to 750MB. They really need to get this memory leak under control. It is insane that it is using up that much resources with just 4 tabs open.

Lol that's ridiculous. Doesn't seem to be happening here though, are you using a beta build or something?

All in one sidebar is disabled along with a few others. I am only on T-F, M$ Answers, Bing and M$ Search. Bing doesnt have a background image displayed, M$ Search is really light weight. So that would mean either T-F or answers.
Yet in IE combined with the same tabs it uses less than 100MB for the same 4 tabs.
