Minimize any open windows and restore them again. Especially if one of the windows went through some intensive processing, windows tends to keep the amount used allocated to that program. By minimizing it, you free up that wasted amount.
Try it out: open task manager, and open a website in internet explorer. Watch the ram go up, and then minimize IE. Restore it and watch the ram usage go down |

Hey Gotnoheart, all you have to do is double-click the task manager. Don't worry... it happened to me once. LOL
