cidaemon [the memory could not be ''read'']

I am receiving the same error as Irwin... however

It is only cidaemon that gives me this error message, it seems to happen very regularly - presumably during cidaemon's catalogue generation...?

I have not experienced application or server crashes.

I am running 2000 server SP1 atm, but will update to SP4 when the office is next empty. Anyone know if this, or anything else, will fix this issue?

Thx advance
