I have a laptop with XP home and 512 MB RAM. When I start the program
Ares , after 1-2 hrs later a blue screen comes up showing some error msg and
restarts immediately. I cant read the msg because the pc restarts as soon as
the blue screen comes.

I have scanned my PC for viruses using Kaspersky and also ran Spybot
to check for spyware and trojans. Everything is clean. This problem has
occured since the past 3-4 days only before it was working fine. I am using
the version Ares 1.9.3.3012 which is the latest as available on the site.
HAs anybody faced this problem? This is a real headache as i wont be
able to save any files which are currently running.

Better use Bearshare rather than Ares.
