I used to get these Access Violation errors after repeated use of IE on a Win98SE installation with TB! V1.53d. IE has a known (and severe) memory "leak" which can cause memory access errors over time. Since I have upgraded to Win2K, these have all disappeared. This machine has 1GB of RAM, so how can one "run out" of system resources or memory with that much installed? I haven't rebooted this system since I installed Win2K, which was 5 days ago. This is far better than my previous experience of 2 to 3 (forced) reboots a day on average with Win98SE! The worst situation I faced in Win98SE was a cross connection of messages with the wrong body text. Shutting down and rebooting, then restarting TB! corrected the errors each time. Much has been said about it not being "wise" to upgrade Win98SE to Win2K, but I have had few problems, and all were cured by simply re-installing the software affected. I only had to uninstall and re-install one package, notably Roxio Easy CD Creator. This was recommended, but I failed to do so, much to my own peril! Live and learn!
