okay, so I opened up my Task manager because my laptop is running unnaceptably slowly, and it says that of my 958MB of total Physical memory 415MB are Cached and only 28MB are free. My question is how I find out what the hell is draining all my memory, since all I have open is IE, WMP, and MSN

You can see mem usage in processes tag. Try finding processes which is using memory too much.
