So the other day my pc started running really slow, so i had a look in task manager and it was saying that 90% of the 8gbs of ram being used. So i trawled the internet looking for what the problem was and it turned out to be a memory leak. I then used poolmon to find out where this leak was coming from its somthing to do with something called wfpn. I am now stuck with what to do to stop this memory leak.

please note this my first time at trying to fix anything like this so if and havent used any terms or anything correctly i do apologize
 
Solution
that is a pooltag for netio.sys
(check the date and file stamp for the netio.sys driver)
if you have a killer network interface card you will want to update the driver.
otherwise you can stop the service as mentioned in the moderators post.
(or stop the service and restart it to clean up the leak)
