Can someone hit me with a RAM checking prog?

I am looking for a program that will check all of my RAM to make sure none of it is 'bad' in any way. A attachment is preferred, but even a link or some advice will be greatly appreciated The reason I ask is because I have gotten a odd error twice in the last week. A message appears that says 'the memory module XXXX could not be read, this program has to close'. This happened when Windows Media Player was running, and another time when I merely right clicked on a file to see it's size...

Odd, isn't it.

Thanks in advance

If your RAM survives this, it's good

Not always, but it's still a pretty good test. Basically, if memtest86 says it's bad, then it's bad. If it says the RAM is good, it is probably good, but not definate.
