Winamp Question

[brascothom]

Hi Everyone..

Please could you tell me whether it is a virus or something wrong with
the Winamp music player which I am using.
My operating System is Windows 98 SE.
Music player: Winamp 5.094
After some time, maybe 25minutes maybe more Winamp goes soft, but the
music is playing - is there a virus that does this or is this version
of Winamp buggy?
Once I reboot the machine my WinAmp plays properly again. Could another reason be the number of open internet windows I have on my taskbar and that my memory resources are running out? Or could my memory (RAM) inside be faulty?

Please could you advise me.

Thanks
