I have noticed that lately I have been getting a lot of messsage popups 
saying things like "Stack Overflow at line 403" and other things with 
something to do with memory.

What causes these and can I fix them?

you will need to post the version of Internet Explorer you are using

your operating system and service pack level


and of course the *exact* error messages



Otherwise any help you get will be based upon guesswork

Always state your full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3; WinXP 64-bit SP2; 
Vista SP1; Vista 64-bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64-bit) as well as your IE version 
when posting in an IE-specific forum or newsgroup. Please do so in your next 
reply.

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your 
subscription current?  What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? 
What third-party firewall (if any)?

Has a(nother) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on this 
machine (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought 
it)?

Windows XP Pro SP 3
Anti virus- Avira
Firewall - Sunbelt personal firewall
No norton or macafee at all on my system

In my original post I did post the exact error message that I got that time.
It is always a overstack on line  ( different each time )

I'm sorry but I do not remember the memory error message, I will keep track
next time it happens.

Was Avira AntiVir running in the background and was Sunbelt firewall enabled 
when you installed IE8 and/or SP3?

Which was installed first, IE8 or SP3?

Does the behavior persist if you start IE in No Add-ons mode?  To start IE 
in No Add-ons mode:

   => Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without 
Add-ons; or

   => Start | (All) Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Internet 
Explorer (No add-ons).

Does the behavior persist if you Reset IE Advanced settings (RIES)?

I am still getting these overstack error messages, each time it is on a 
different line on a different webpage but they are all "overstack" errors.. 
any idea how I can correct this?

You start by answering the questions.  They were not rhetorical.
