I have a very strange problem. Every time I start my computer svchost.exe crashes after about 5 minutes and I get an error message that says:
"Instruction on "0x66dd87d4" referenced memory at 0x00000000. The memory could not be "written" " after the crash there is no sound so I cannot listen to mp3 files or hear youtube clips. If it helps I can mention that for some reason firefox won' t start until svchost.exe crashes, if I try to start it the process will shut itself down in under a second.

I have no idea what causes this, I have run virus scan, adware scan, malware scan and got the latest updates for windows though I found some infected files and removed them, but it still does not work!

Please help me
