If this happens as soon as you replace the fuse and then try to use either
the door locks or the sunroof, then you have a short and you'll need to have
someone track down the short in the wiring or switches.

If the fuse blows over time, and does not seem to be related to simply using
the door locks or the sunroof, then I would start by disabling the sunroof
to see if the motor is causing an overload condition.
