We are just never happy, are we?
Before, when the highest was 300 mhz ... people wanted to overclock to 600. Then, 600 mhz came, then we want to overclock to 1 ghz. Now, look at what you got ... and you want more.
We are too greedy ... we always want more. I hope you burn your pentium, hahaha

If you think it will actually do anything, sure go ahead and clock it to 3.5 GHz (hey, Intel did it! Given, they needed lots of liquid nitrogen and such, but forget that). Too bad, now your P4 is fried. Go buy an Athlon XP, they're not that expensive. For that matter, they're cheaper. They're also faster in true performance tests, go figure.

Very limited coz the multiplier is locked. The only way you could oc it is by increasing fsb,core voltage etc. But you'd need a really good board for that (infact, i doubt there is any board which will allow you to oc a P4 1.8 any higher!)

regarding jGuru's comment: "you could oc it is by increasing fsb,core voltage etc"
overclocking the core voltage does nothing to performance, all it will do is fry the chip

Is it socket 478? is it the Northwood core?
you could use the Asus P4B266 board, and you could overclock your baby up to 2.56MHz, using the stock heat sink and fan that came with your processor. :D It is safe... and it is tested. stable too.
here's the review for that. http://www.virtual-hideout.net/articles/p4northwood_ocing_adventure/index.shtml
have fun, and good luck!
