Can anyone tell me what it means please? Also if it is something bad, what can I do about it?
The "c" is like a little upturned nose, sort of like that of a pig. Not good.
IT IS:

Notice the 'c' not '-'

Ahh yes, this is true. If you run loads of stuff i.e. painshop pro, encarta, word, Mp3 blaring out and civ III all at once it will also consume virtual memory.
So let that be a lesson to you.
Hopefully if I dont run as many programmes in future simultaneously it wont happen again.
Thanks for help all.

This is what I suspect. If I were you I would try uninstalling unplayed games, getting rid of old MP3s. You know, the big memory hoggers. Or you can wipe your PC clean and scan disk it. DO NOT do this if you are not advanced, it requires installing everything again, and you would want to back up your hard drive and make sure you have the program discs.
That said, if you do clean it wholesale, your PC should run much better.
But if I am honest I may be wrong about the whole memory thing. But deleting some stuff shouldn't do any harm.
Anyway, have you tried NB's suggestion? Make sure you don't edit any of the memory settings there, unless you REALLY know what you're doing.
Will virtual memory only be used up once my ram can no longer cope?
I was running quite a lot of programmes when the warning came up. Hmm.
Ok, fine, I don't know what I am talking about. Happy!?
