The eBoostr program does *NOT* increase your RAM.
All "memory booster" programs are only source of
problems because they usually
interfere with normal operation of windows.
The only way to increase free RAM is to
STOP/disable from running unnecessary programs / services,
NOT to add new ones that do consume even more
memory.

Hi folks,
I join the opinion of Tomasz.
BTW, there could be a way to increase the RAM amount
This way is at http://www.eboostr.com/
but remenber, it is just a hekp, not THE sikytion to all your memory
problems.
