SYMPTOMS
On your Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, or your Microsoft Windows NT, 4.0 Server, you may receive an error message that is similar to the following:
When you receive this error message, you must restart your computer.
CAUSE
This problem may occur if you have installed WQuinn's QuotaAdvisor 4.1, build 452 or earlier on your computer.
This problem occurs if the QAServer service account does not have write permissions to the QAQuotasV4.dat file in the root directory. As a result, a memory leak occurs. If permissions are not correct, the QAFilter driver allocates memory repeatedly until the paged pool is full.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, you can remove QuotaAdvisor from your computer.
You may also try to contact the vendor of QuotaAdvisor to obtain information about how to correct this behavior, or to inquire about an update for this product.
