Who knows much or understands the program MemTest?

I've been having some flaky computer problems. Odd things, like freezes, not booting into windows, etc. On a whim, I ran MemTest for about 30 minutes. It found the following:

"Error found with word pair #60114874 or #60114312 (either could be the source)".

It also found the same thing with the following numbers:
60114878 or 60114316
60114882 or 60114320
60114886 or 60114324
71761688 or 71761024
71761692 or 71761028

I turned off everything I could (firewall, anti-virus, desktop background changer, etc.) before running the test for probably over 30 minutes. The only thing I did not turn off was CleanMem (which probably runs every 30 minutes or so).

Could CleanMem have caused these error readings?

Do the error readings mean what I think they mean? I have bad RAM?
