Using all available virtual memory might be a bug if it happens and it's possible to avoid it, but it's still not a memory leak. How that event is handled depends on how your system is set up, but I forget the details. I've actually tested Fx for this in the past. My system warns you that resources are exhausted, and then I think the application just stops.

Your message apparently included a memory monitor to install on my computer. Sorry, no, I'll use Task Manager. You can probably test just by viewing some local images instead of a Web site. I had a link to a Web site I used to use for this, but I don't think I have it any more.
