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.

which he also notes below. That fixed my problem so far. Thank you.
