I like to have as much memory free as possible so (windows xp) I go to Windows Task Manager and go to the processes tab. I then end all the extra processes that appear to be just sitting there taking up memory. The processes are: svchost.exe, winmgmt.exe, and some others.
My question is: why are they there, and what do they do, and is it necessary to keep them running?
