error with win2k, memory could not be "read"

[Yzk]

Hi,
For awhile now, I've been having a bit of trouble with memory references making errors. I get 1 error message, they never come at the same time, just when I shut them down. Like this:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Application popup: XPCOM:EventReceiver: firefox.exe - Application Error : The instruction at "0x01bb31f3" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".

Click on OK to terminate the program
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Application popup: iexplore.exe - Application Error : The instruction at "0x023731f3" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".

Click on OK to terminate the program
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Most of them come from Internet explorer, it seems that IE and Firefox are competing for eachother.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Application popup: ShareScan 2.exe - Application Error : The instruction at "0x018131f3" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".

Click on OK to terminate the program
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Application popup: IEXPLORE.EXE - Application Error : The instruction at "0x024531f3" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".

Click on OK to terminate the program
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quite a few, these just happened the last week. I read somewhere that programs like to compete sometimes with on what memory module they'll use or that a memory module has gone corrupt. I don't really know, could you offer some suggestions? Much appreciated :)

nobody knows? Even a hint in the right direction could help..

Free of virus and malware?

Perhaps a refresh install of Windows?

Perhaps a RAM mismatch or failing RAM module?

Thanx Catweazle :cool:
