No, this isn't about the checkbox covering the buttons.

Teatimer running on my system occasionally has some severe memory leaks. It typically happens whenever I install a big program (100MB+), but has happened when simply running a defrag.

Today, it has hit 300MB+ in memory 4x total causing me to terminate the process. I finally gave up and just didn't bother to restart the application and turned it off in SpyBot.

Not sure if there is a fix outside of a new version, but thought I'd report the problem either way.

It appears a new version of TeaTimer is required to fix the memory leaks. However, it may not be too long before you see relief.
