"Cannot Load Address"

I get it on my power book g4 all the time.  Also seems to be related to 
run time, although not an 'iff on for x hours' kind of thing.  But 
definitely more likely to happen at any one time when it's been running 
for an extended period.

And it's not always just the top level page that gets the error, 
sometimes I'll load a page and it will start to layout and then 90% of 
the images will get the failure icon.  Now I usually recognize that for 
what it is and just quit, but the first couple times I went "hun, 
that's odd" and tried to load something else, where I'd get the 'nil 
value' bug.  I don't need to force quit when that happens though.
