What does 'possible heap corruption detected' mean, when listed in the Event Viewer?

Should I be concerned about the stability of the system/memory if I see 'possible heap corruption detected' in the Event Viewer.  There are no details listed as to which program might be causing the possible heap corruption.

Thanks

    Re:  Nero 9 I installed Visuall C++ 2008 and 2010.

    I don't use Nero 9, but if I need to do any disc-burning, then I might need to use it.  I'm surprised that Panda IS 2012 is causing problems.  By the way, does anyone know anythign about this warning?

    Your Sky Drive is now working. When I looked at your Event log I encountered some technical  difficultoes but Palcouk seems to have managed better.

    You do appreciate that it was not me who asked you to post what you did. Event Viewer reports are a good way of trying to resolve problems. My intervention was purely to assist you to use your Sky Drive. I would have expected Zig Zag to follow up but he has not so far.

    I have to do paid work this afternoon but I will have a good look through your reports this evening.

    Uninstall SpyBot, if you used the TeaTimer module, undo any changes it may have made, before uninstalling.

    Nero 9 also appears to be causing problems, as does Panda AV

    Emma the days have long gone since email addresses were posted in newsgroups and forums. For years after I stopped doing it I endured a continual avalanche of spam. I still get some but it is much less than it was.

    Important Note: You can share the folder with Everyone if there is no private/sensitive information (such as the screen shot of a prompt error message). To so, simply select the "Everyone (Public)" option in the "Share with" box. Please refer to the following screen shot:
