Believe it or not, I think it is a Windows problem.
Drop your RAM down to 256MB, or 384MB and see if it stops the problem.

Windows 9X has a problem with large amounts of RAM.
This is VERY configuration dependent, and could be triggered in a system by a driver or software update.

This also sounds like a Windows problem to me as well. The fatal exception OE pretty much says that. What maybe happening is that the O/S itself is shutting down before all the programs have shut down, and that causes the system to hang. First thing turn off all the programs running in the background that you do not need. See if that helps. If you are running Windows 98SE turn off the fast shutdown option in the settings area.
