How large is your hard disk and how much free space is there? Enter =
Windows Explorer, place cursor on your C drive, right click and select =
Properties, General. Has your hard disk been partitioned?

How good is your housekeeping?=20

1. In Outlook Express empty your Deleted Items folder.

2. In Outlook Express run File, Folder, Compact All whilst OFFLINE.

3. Remove Temporary Internet Files by selecting Start, Control Panel, =
Internet Options, General tab, Delete Files and check box for "Delete =
all offline content".

4. Empty Recycle Bin.

5. Run Disk Defragmenter.=20

Hope this helps.

That specific problem - low virtual memory error at shutdown (and only at
shutdown) has been associated with the Live Update feature in Norton
Internet Security.

Symantec has posted a fix for this problem. Download the file LRSETUP.EXE
from http://www.symantec.com/techsupp/files/lu/lu.html and run it.

Good luck

What version of Windows are you using? Is it an English version?
