It seems to be full RAM, rather than bad RAM.  But NASA may have a fix:

"Mission controllers have started loading a "script" on the rover designed to locate 
the root
cause of the problem and confirm the scientists' "hunch". They will try to run a 
health check
on the memory on Tuesday and try to delete some of the problem files on Wednesday."

THEY'RE SENDING IT A FILE-SCRUBBING VIRUS!!!!
