In one simple sentence a memory leak is when a program on NT or Windows
95/98 or other OS does not properly return the resources it uses.  Over
time, the usage of that leaked resource grows ever larger and more all
consuming to the point that it slows down a machine or causes it to
virtually stop.  It can also be more selective and cause that resource to
simply become unavailable.  Sometimes, the only way to clear up this
problem is to reboot.

Any computer, including your Kayak, is a candidate for this problem.
