mssearch.exe easting up memory

Hi ,
Running SQL 2000 on Windows Advanced Server 2003 Standard. If I leave it up
for three days, the mssearch.exe job just continues to eat up more memory
until the machine runs out of it needing for the mssearch.exe job to be
ended. Then the mssearch.exe runs again and the cycle continues.
I observered that everytime our .net app touches the sql server database,
that is when this mssearch.exe job stays and start to eat up memory. A
google search reveals that open cursors to the database or a web user
creates a link and does nothing causes this mssearch.exe to go up and grow
and grow.
Is there a fix for this or a workaround?
Thanks,
RdRYou should contact Microsoft Product Support and have them take a look at
MSSearch.
