Default Memory leak

Have a major memory leak on my server, there are not many programs/applications loaded on it.

Does anyone know of a safe software that I can download which will detect where the leak is?

I've googled memory leak which throws up a few downloads, but unwilling to take a chance on a dodgy one.

The task manager shows it peaking out at 3.4, when it is first rebooted runs at 1.2, but within 24hrs peaks.

Any help much appreciated

What is the server doing? Domain Controller? File Server? DB Server?

Does the amount of memory in use by all processes in task manager tally with the total amount reported as committed?

You could just use task manager, sort by memory usage, and see which process is continually increasing in size
