8544	2001-02-10 00:00:00	I have a pentium111 computer with 128mb ram, 13GB hard drive and running windows 98. When going on the internet it works for a few minutes then when I go to open a page or talk on the ICQ it freezes up. I press Alt-ctrl-del and it tells me my system is dangerously low on resources. I close everthing down to the desk top then I start netscape again and everything usually works fine. can anyone please help me with this problem. Thankyou.	Guest (0)

Obviously this is only one of many possible causes,but is probably the easiest to try first of all. Also it may pay to delete all files in your C:\Windows\Temp and C:\Windows\Temporary Internet Folders. Regards Alan	Guest (0)
