it called a memory leak. A program with a memory leak will keep taking up more and more space the longer it is left running

seems like this memory leak affects users to different degrees, on my computer using AIM 4.8 the most it ever used was 7 megs (at the time of signing on its around 4.5).
I just downloaded AIM 5.2.3255 and it starts off using 22 megs. How many additional useless features could they have added!?!?!?!
