I have SP1, but am not sure if there are other pacthes I should apply that might help this.
A friend told me that MS have a patch available on request that fixes this kind of problem with Outlook 2000. I'm hoping to get this patch soon and am praying that it will fix my problems.
In the meantimes, does anyone else have any ideas?

I can't think of anything I may have done recently that might be causing this.
It's been happening on and off since about Christmas, but I thought it was just a misbehaving application.
The frequency of the errors now leads to me think I may have a hardware problem (but not in my RAM as I have changed it and the problem still occurs), or a part of my OS is fried.
As for services, the following are running:
Alerter
Com+ Event System
Computer Browser
DHCP Client
Distributed Link Tracking Client
DNS Client
Event Log
HID Input Service
Internet Connection Sharing
IPSEC Policy Agent
Logical Disk Manager
Messenger
NAV Alert
NAV Auto-Protect
Network Connections
Norton Program Scheduler
Norton Unerase Protection
Plug and Play
Print Spooler
Protected Storage
Remote Access Connection Manager
Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
Removable Storage
RunAs Service
Security Accounts Manager
Server
Speed Disk service
System Event Notification
Task Scheduler
TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper Service
Telephony
TrueVector Basic Logging Client
TrueVenctor Internet Monitor
Windows Management Instrumentation
Windows Management Instrumentation Driver Extensions
Workstation
The Nav entries relate to Norton Anti-Virus 2001 (part of SystemWorks 2001) and the TrueVector services are for the ZoneAlarm firewall that I run.
All other services are set to manual.

I'll e-mail you that Outlook 2000 patch on Monday.
It certainly cleared up the 'Memory Could Not Be Read' I was having on two machines running Outlook 2000, but it is dependent on you having the 'inbox Backup' application running.
It's by no way a general fix for Win2k.
Leand me the game Bursar and I'll try it on my system and see if I get the same problems.

The problem is very intermittent. Sometimes I can play several HalfLife sessions in one 'boot session' without problem.
The problem also occurs in IE. I'm now getting it when trying to access the WindowsUpdate site.
I click product updates, I get the little box in the middle, and then POW just as it should be loading the list of updates, I get the error.
The second event log posted above is after a crash following a visit to the WindowsUpdate site.
Paul, do your blokes at work have Visual Studio or Visual C++ installed on the machines that are experiencing this problem?
Maybe it's something to do with that?
