memory read error on shutdown

robertdempster · 12-07-2006, 10:54 AM

I have a problem that saeems to be very prevolent,
Sometimes on closing IE7 I get a memory read error.
Luckily this omly happens on sites where i watch movies with quick time.
Searching through the web there are literally hundreds of instances of the same fault. The specific memory read locations are different each time. As I said I am very lucky and so far its nothing but a minor annoyance. With a lot of other users its been crashing their compuiter and popping up for other applications at star6tup. This only seems to have cropped up sincewe were forced to upgrade to IE7.
There are so many instances of this problem out there Microsoft must do something about it.
In the meantime I would be grateful if anybody could provide me wqith a bit of an insight to this problem.
Iam a newbie with XP so please keep any contact non techy and english please!
