Explorer: Address Violation at address xxxxxxxx Read of address xx

[Guest]

Hi, recently I started to receive the following error messages
Explorer
Address violation at address 0000F8C7 Read of Address 0000F8C7.
Sometines the address # are different either 00000000 or FFFFFFFF. With
these the two addresses in the message are the same but today I got
Address violation at address 0951F9D1 Read of Address 1B32FD54.
The occurence seems to be sporadic and I have not figured out yet what
action causes the error. I think it is when I close a program.
I could not find any similar information in the kb or here.
Hope someone can help

Hi,

Scan for ad and spyware yet? That is the most frequent cause of this errors
in Explorer. Try AdAware SE for starters
(http://www.download.com/3000-2144-10045910.html).

Thank you Rick for your reply
I have Adware SE and use it regularly. It does not prevent the problem to
occur.
Any other idea?
