fatal error Allowed memory size of 8300000 bytes exhausted

The site loads normally, I can enter admin, but when I go from the main admin menu into the next menu layer this comes up.
I've tried to increase the memoery allocation as suggested but to no avail.
Any suggestions, or have I done something stupid?
Thanks

Wow if its such a world wide problem you'd thought they would have made it a sticky solution  :o

A solution appears to be :-
In the CMS config.php line 19, change it to

$config['php_memory_limit'] = '128000000';

Don't forget to 'slacken' your file attributes on the server copy of config.php before you upload it otherwise it will not change.

Of course afterwards change them back to 744
I hope that helps
:)
