Unload Unused DLLs

After an application is closed, XP has the annoying habit of leaving the associated DLL files in memory. This can cause stability problems. Make the DLLs unload themselves from memory after the program done running.

Navigate to:

HLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AlwaysUnloadDLL

If the DWORD AlwaysUnloadDLL is not present, you will need to create it. Set the Value of the “(Default)” setting to 1.
