    Yes:

Jul 17 22:25:18: %SYS-2-MALLOCFAIL: Memory allocation of 65536 bytes 
failed from 0x8044D28C, alignment 0
Pool: Processor  Free: 31696  Cause: Not enough free memory
Alternate Pool: None  Free: 0  Cause: No Alternate pool

-Process= "BGP Router", ipl= 0, pid= 84
-Traceback= 80451BD0 80453B70 8044D290 807C2CA8 807D415C 807D4FA8 
807C5CC8 807CC340 804764B4

    I tought that the "BGP Attack" made the Memory allocation failure, 
but, possibly the BGP problema was the result of any other problem. We 
saw a lot of CPU usage and memory, I guess it was because some virus in 
the LAN where the router is.
