 IE8 slow in closing down separate opened tabs - ....
Other than using the IE8 Tools to clean up after itself do you do any other maintenance ?

Index.dat files fill up and never get cleared down. If you have user accounts you could try logging in as the Administrator and deleting the index.dat files from the user account(s).
There is also a utility I use from systenance.com which empties the contents of these files but will not reduce its size. This helps the performance.

I run a similar setup on one of our laptops. XP Media SP3 with 2GB RAM.
