dial up and memory xp problems

I just got my new phone line in yesterday and tried to install AOL for dial up. I guess my systems memory allocation is used up...apparently by spyware of which many spyware cleaners think there it is a clean system. NOT! I found a process list which I plan to go through with a fine tooth comb and root out resource hogs. I have tried to download cleaners but nothing that addresses this specific problem. If anyof you know of a good XPp process manager I would be grateful.


as a side thought.....
I am not very happy with XP. I thought windows ME was more user friendly. I have huge amount of disk space with tiny memory....This computer is too new to be having such a hard time. I am using a lesser dial up service and my speed tops out at 48. I have read everything possible and cleaned up every obsolite file. I have run tests and everything seems to be fine but it's not. I plan to get more memory later but for right now I need a good XP process list...and or manager.

Thanks
