IE ending with application error

Every now and then one of my PCs (win XP) has an error window after
using IE. The window says
iexplore.exe - Apllication error
The instruction at 0x7d4f24b3 referenced memory at 0x0000008 The memory
could not be written.

I don't know why this is happening. I'm not the one using it at the
time so I don't know if IE shutsdown prematurely with that error or if
it's only there after it's closed, but I'd like it to stop. I'd rather
not have to uninstall and reinstall IE, that seems like a pain, is
there anything else to try? I've done spyware/virus scans/Norton
Windows Doctor/disk doctor/cleaned the cache, etc, all the usually
stuff and then some.

This error is indicative of a driver going bad... Might look into an upgrade,
especially your video driver. Go to the manufacturer's web site and look around.
