October 7, 200421 yr get firefox like your sig says NO problems at all -G agreed Steam doesn't cause ads, I have it and mine's perfectly ok stop going to...shady...websites and you should stop getting em www.google.com and search for Spybot S&D that's a good program to search for and destroy spyware and this just sounds like a comman spyware problem
October 7, 200421 yr Steam uses IE to display certain aspects (adds in the "browse games" section for example are handled via web based script, Also if you minimise then right click on the steam windows that you have minimised, and hit close, itll stop the memory leak.
