Hi Andy :)

Please check your event viewer and post the error as it is listed there.

click 'start'>select 'control panel'>open 'administrative tools'>open 'event viewer.'

Double click on the error, this will open a new window with more detailed information. There should be a copy button, click it, then paste (ctrl+v) the information in a new post.

Yep thats what I mean and darn. I was hoping for a file name or something to narrow it down :)

Did you make any changes to your system before you started getting the error, installing a new program etc.? (I have seen people with this problem being caused by Divx)

This happens all the time when you do specific actions or it happens with everything? (If it is a specific program you can try uninstalling/reinstalling the program).

If we can't pinpoint a specific program/file then I would suggest heading over the the malware forums and seeing if you could have picked up something along those lines.

You could also go through this thread here to see if anything matches your problem and try their solution... http://www.geekstogo...tten-t4911.html

Do you have SP2 applied? What about updates, are you current?

Edit:

Also check Virtual memory settings.
  • Right click on My Computer, select Properties, Advanced Tab.
  • In the Performance section click Settings button.
  • Click on the Advanced tab.
  • Under Virtual Memory, click the Change button.
What are the settings? Recommended values are:
  • Minimum: 1.5 times installed RAM
  • Maximum: 3 times installed RAM

Is it only network based programs that cause the problem? If not, try the following:

How does it behave if you boot to Safe Mode with Networking? If better then something is starting at boot that is causing the problem. Try the following:

First, physically disconnect from the Internet to prevent a malware infection while your Anti-virus and/or Firewall are disabled in the following steps, then do a normal boot:

Click on Start then Run, type msconfig and press Enter.
Click on the Startup tab and disable everything (I mean everything).
Do a regular boot, see if it runs normal.
If yes then use msconfig to enable several items at a time till you find the culprit.

If no, click on the Services tab. Check the Hide All Microsoft Services box then click the Disable All button.
Again, do a regular boot, see if it runs normal.
If yes then use msconfig to enable services till you find the culprit.

Once you've found the culprit, uninstall it or find out how to eliminate it from your system. Simply disabling it in msconfig is a temporary fix at best.

Reconnect to the Internet when your AV and firewall are active again.

Okay, let's try ShellExVIew. Download it from here: http://www.nirsoft.n...s/shexview.html

Run it. Make it full screen, then click on the Company column header. That should bring all the pink entries to the top (at least it does for me). They are all non-Microsoft on my computer.

Try disabling the pink entries, a few at a time and testing or disable all the pink entries and test. If it makes a difference then start re-enabling them a few at a time till you find the culprit.

Note that you are not deleting anything, just disabling them. Re-enable them to put everything back.

Are you using IE6 or IE7? If IE7, uninstall it.

To uninstall IE7, open Add or Remove Programs. Check the "Show updates" box at the top. Scroll down to Windows Internet Explorer 7 and remove it. When done, you should have IE6 back.

Next, go to the Windows Update site. Uncheck the "Windows Internet Explorer 7.0 for Windows XP" update.
Check the "Don't show this update again" box that appears below the details.
Click on the "Review and Install Updates" link. This seems to be what really locks in the change.
You should see a Important - You've hidden important updates yadda yadda stuff.
That should stop Windows Update from bugging you about installing IE7.

If IE6, start it, open Tools then Folder Options then Manage Add-ons. Disable all Add-ons.

See if either of the above make a difference.
