RE: Emoticons stop showing after a while
Just because you have 512MB or 2GB of RAM, doesn't mean the system will let WLM use it all. Windows uses something called 'virtual memory', where every process 'thinks' it has 4GB, but in reality it has nothing like that. The system deals out the available RAM in as fair a manner as possible.
Given that a typical Windows XP PC can have 60 processes easily, it's no surprise WLM seems to run a little short after a while!
