High Memory Usage (89%) on my laptop - Windows 8
I am having problems with my memory it has jumped to 89% and stays there. I tried to restart i looked at the processes it seems that non-paged tools is taking the most. I used RamMAP tool to find this problem.

Hi there, Yes i just ran some scan using malwarebytes this time, it found 29 threats mostly from Dealply...it has removed them all. I restarted before i did the scan and the memory seems to sit now at 30% but at some point it will probably again increase to 89%+
It seems stable now but do you have any idea why it would increase to such a big percentage?

Um, virus and/or malware? Be sure to do a rootkit virus check also.
