Intel WiFi Software Hogs Memory

There is an update due out today for the Intel PROSet software that is hogging system memory. According to an Intel spokesman, the problem affects the Intel PROSet software version 10.5.

"One of the processes used by the Intel PROSet software was not releasing the (file) handles correctly, which caused more and more memory to be used by the process," Martin said. As a result, a PC slows down, she said.
