thanks very much.
another qusetion:

I had tried this such
as

while(1)
{
char *p = new char[33];

}

when I close the process, I find that the memory can be used is more
than before I didn't run the process.

any explain.
I thought when the process is running ,it used some memory which didn't
belong to it.
so when it closed and the memory is freed, the memory can be used is
more than before.

I think it is not a good explain, maybe it is related with some
knowledge of OS,
could you give me some tips?
