I'm not exaclty sure what the memory address is that this error indicates,
but the error window pops up after closing (in disgust) a stalled IE window.
The message reads something like: memory cannot be 'read' (notice single
quotations) at something something something. Of course, I don't have the
actual error window to refer to because it makes me click ok before doing
anything else. Also, I didn't think of this site until after the most recent
occurance. I am noticing it more and more, any thoughts?

What is the history of your memory modules. How many have you got
installed.

I had the same problem. After reading Mr. Saunders reply in other posts, I
fixed my Winsock in WinXP SP2 by going to Start ] Run and typing CMD. etc.
which he also notes below. That fixed my problem so far. Thank you.
