Sorry Your computer is running very low on available
resources to complete this request. Please close some of
the other open applications or restart your computer
before proceeding.

I do not have any applications open other than the one I
am working on.........I.e. I may be in AOL and I am
reading a message. I delete it, then try and go to
another message. The red x appears with the above message
and the only thing I can do next is close the computer, re
boot and start over again. This happens over and over and
over again and I can't do anything except one
action......Help please
