Although I've never used X's personal web sharing, I would hasten to guess that the details of the failure will be recorded in a "log file". As per usual, you may prefer to get a nerd to interpret your log files for you. To have a look at this yourself, fire up the 'Console' application (in the 'Utilities' folder within the 'Applications' folder) and scrounge around in some of the log files listed there. It will help if you have 'freshly' failed to start web sharing, as this makes it easy to find recent messages at the end of the log files. I suppose you might have tried this already. With regards to your unexpected quitting, what became of those memtest results? Have you pursued any avenues to do with replacing RAM or operating it as a uniprocessor system? I don't know what type of RAM your machine has, but if it's error-correcting then I would hope that there'd also be traces of failure in your kernel's logs. Also, have you tried simply creating a 'new user' and logging in as that new user? That would basically give you 'fresh' preferences, permissions, startup items, etc.
