I am using firefox 29.0.1 since May 11. My desktop uses Window XP 5.1. Since May 11, I have inexpicably lost 2 G of available memory. I have done nothing remarkable or different during this time, except use FF 29. What can I do to recover this memory and stop memory leak?

Are you referring to RAM or Hard Disk memory? Have you tried clearing data such as browser history.
