Over the past couple of days I keep getting an error message that says you
are low on virtual memory.

See the article by the late Alex Nichol MVP at
http://aumha.org/win5/a/xpvm.htm



Then another message sying that explorer is not
responding, which causes me to close the program. What does this mean and
any ideas on what can I do to fix it?

For that one you will have to look in Event Viewer (right-click on My
Computer and select Manage) for an error record in the Application or
System category whose date and time corresponds to the explorer
lockup. Double click on the error record to see the details of that
error.

Good luck
