Hi Jan,
The last time I ran those kinds of scans was probably 6 weeks ago or so. These errors have popped up more recently than that so I will try your suggestion. I wouldn't have a clue how to do a good registry cleaning. I have "played" in there some in the past deleting references to programs I no longer have - things like that but a real cleaning - where could I find instructions how to do that? There used to be a program called RegClean but far as I know that's for like Win98 and before. I don't know that I should try using that on XP.
Thanks! At least that's something to go on.

Hi Deb
Sure shouldn't be causing problems with your RAM. Usually the first things I try after pulling out some of my hair, is to do a Virus Scan and Ad-Aware scan.
Also, the error message popping up with nothing open could be from spyware, virus, or just an MS tantrum.
When was the last time you cleaned up your registry? I know when I delete a lot of programs, I have to clean the registry out.
It seems I had this same problem and I'm running Win XP Pro. I believe it turned out to be spyware of some kind. When I run ad-aware, it will catch weird stuff in my registry.
Sure wish I had a better 'for sure' fix, but this is all I've got. hth
