        There is no such 'Fatal Exception' error in the screen I get.  I put the
full error in the post.

        Very helpful..especially to a neophyte.

        I reboot often.  In fact, I always turn off and uplug the computer when I
am finished so I have no worries about storms if I'm away.  So I cold boot
at least 2 times a day.  However, I am sometimes online longer than a few
hours so I'll try this suggestion and the one about rebooting gracefully.

        I have 40 megs of memory.
