My Athlon64 3200+ is hovering between 40-45 degrees at full load, so if you get those temperatures when idle I'd suggest you see if you can increase airflow in your case, as well as maybe getting a better CPU-cooler.

A belated thanks-you called it. I just took the side off the case, since it was easy to get to, and the fan came on less often.
Tonight it turned on and stayed on awhile, so I dragged it out of its area and took a look.
The fan hasn't come on again since I cleaned all that crap out.
