Every few days my PC (Windows XP Pro SP3) keeps reporting that it is
low on virtual memory. I have narrowed it down to "spoolsv.exe" which
at the time is getting around 4 to 8k added to it every few seconds.

If I restart the spool service it resets back to a 4 figure number and
stops going up for a while.
Two or three days later it is back up to over 600,000kb and growing.

I have had a look around the internet, but I can only find solutions
for Windows 2000.
