[drupal-support] I'll try anything

I haven't done this, but one workaround would be to try setting the 
variable in the .htaccess file in your drupal directory.  You should be 
able to add a line like

   php_value memory_limit        32M

to the various php variable overloads in the section that begins with

<IfModule mod_php4.c>
   # If you are using Apache 2, you have to use <IfModule sapi_apache2.c>
   # instead of <IfModule mod_php4.c>.

if you've used the default .htaccess file.  I have no idea how this 
would play out on a windows system, however.
