W2K Memory Error

[NCTechie]

I have a Windows 2000 PC that's getting the following referenced memory error. Does anyone know what's triggering this?

explorer.exe application error
The instructions at 0x0315200c

Thanks

I would guess you have a trojan-virus of somesort
One thing to try open taskmanager choose performance and leave open.
open explorer and check the cpu usuage, when explorer opens what ever virus is attacking it that executable cpu usuage will jump to 90% or so.
Microsoft have a good antispyware beta available free from there site.
It might not get rid of it but will find the virus.
but i could be wrong.........
