Hey guys,

The past couple of days my computer has been running unbelieveably slow, and when I look at the Task Manager, I see that processes are using much less RAM than they should be, (firefox using 70,000 rather than several hundred thousand, WoW using 114000 rather than over a million).

I've run malware scans with Kaspersky, BitDefender, Avast! and Malwarebytes but none have returned any results.

Do you guys have any ideas about what could be throttling my RAM?

This is not throttling. Just making that clear to not confuse anyone. Nothing will make it use less except if you have less ram to use which would also cause the slowdowns. Check your usable amount.
