mrlova, what you describe sounds like 'buffering'. Shouldn't be with 1G of memory unless something is consuming that memory. Deleted index.dat lately? Sorta a SWAG, but...
A common ailment is a file called 'index.dat'. It gets read every time and can take quite a while if it’s too bloated. It's like a log file and keeps a record of every site you visit on the web. Empty, it's 32K, but it can grow HUGE. It's a protected file and can't be deleted by normal methods. CCleaner (free @: http://www.ccleaner.com/) can get rid of it (not to worry, it gets rebuilt EMPTY on the next boot.).
HTH.
