It's a common issue that sth. in TYPO3 needs more memory than allowed.  Always the only solution is to give TYPO3 (PHP) more memory - or maybe you modify TYPO3-code to not use so much memory (if this is a better solution for you ;-)).
On many shared hostings you can adjust memory_limit yourself with adding following line to .htaccess:
php_admin_value memory_limit 64M

(maybe it's php_value instead of php_admin_value).

If you can't adjust memory_limit to more than 32M you should change your hoster.
