75000 Win32 Handles Created by SC

Hi:

Is it normal for SpywareGuard to create over 75000 Win32 Handles?
If so why. I ran Taskinfo 2003 utility and it gave me an alert that
too many Win32 Handles were created. When I looked at the breakdown SpywareGuard had created some 75000 such handles.
Would appreciate any info you can supplly me on this topic.

regards and thanks

Dan

 

There is indeed a chance of this happening - the bug/conflict has been identified in the current release of SpywareGuard (2.1) and will be fixed in the next version, which should be out soon.

You mean version 2.6.

I'm glad someone pointed this memory leak out--I hadn't noticed it before. Sure enough, though, Task Manager shows the handle count creeping up continually. SpywareGuard crashed on me just a few minutes ago; maybe the issues are related...

 

Nope - SpywareGuard 2.1 is the current version. (SpywareBlaster is at version 2.6, but that doesn't have any such problems.)

Do you have any more details on the crash you experienced? TIA.
