The popup icon code is known to leak GDI objects. This shouldn't really matter on 2k/XP though... make sure you use the latest version of popup2, some GDI leaks were fixed in late 2002 (but there's still at least one huge leak in the icon code :p).
If you really want to keep the icons enabled you could also replace !PopupDynamicFolder with !PopupFolder. The dynamic version leaks each time you open a submenu, the "regular" version should only leak once per startup/!recycle. Plus it's a lot faster. The only disadvantage is that you have to !recycle for popup2 to notice any changes in the folder(s) it points to using !PopupFolder. That shouldn't really matter though unless you install a dozen new programs on a daily basis or so...
