I have been getting error messages that say that Internet Explorer is not
able to read the the memory 0x05e7f870, and will shut down. The message
requires an "okay." Sometimes that shuts down one browser window, sometimes
all of them that are open, and sometimes none at all.

I've Google'd the error and looked for it on the Microsoft site and can't
find any reference to it.

My system is clean, as far as I've been able to determine. I run McAfee
VirusScan and firewall and Spyware Doctor in the background. This can happen
when there is nothing else running, except IE.

Does anyone know what is causing this?
