MemoryError

Hi,

This says that Zenmap ran out of RAM while processing the scan. Try running 
Nmap manually and load the results on a machine with more RAM or scan less 
hosts at once.

BTW, note to devs: this is by far the most popular Zenmap crash report. The 
MemoryError exception should IMHO be caught and the user should hear some more 
meaningful message before the Zenmap memory footprint problem gets 
solved/reduced.

Yours,
Jacek Wielemborek
