Memory Hog
Nathan Pugh


This hog sits on your desktop and lets you know which running process is eating up the most memory.

Vaguely based off of the Memory Monitor widget.

Running XP Pro, SP2.

Sorry.

Nathan - June 16, 2005
Anyone who had errors, wanna tell me which version of Windows you're running? As displayed it's still very much in beta right now but I want to make it work for all (reasonable) windows platforms. Thanks.

Never mind your loading from a js file

ghostwalker - June 15, 2005
I was looking at your kon file and you have this
hogText.data = hog.getHog();
although you dont have any functions listed in the kon file?
