svchost.exe - Application Error

THe instruction at "0x7564d383" referenced memory at "0x00000060". The memory could not be "read". Click on OK to terminate the program.

This stops me getting on the laptop as it never connects and is always aquiring a network pass...

Is this the problem because i'm currently on the ame wireless just on a different computer.

Thanks

When does the error happen?

This happens on start up (it changes the xp theme to the classic theme and my background doesn't show up either) but also happens when I try uninstalling programs, I can't get on the internet at all on that laptop.

So, I assume, despite the error, you're able to boot all the way, right?

Yes I can start up fine. I just till get the error on start up (as I log on) and when I uninstall programs. I also still have no background.

Navigate to: C:\Windows\Minidump folder.
If you see any .dmp files, zip all of them, and attach zipped file to your next reply.

There are no files at all in there. The svchost error has disappeared but I still have no background (I have reloaded it) and also no internet.

I'm getting the exact same errors. I downloaded a video file that was .wmv and upon opening it there was a window saying I needed to update my video codecs.

This is what it looks like (DON'T click the 'download now' button within the link):


I'm usually good at ignoring these things but I was stupid to click this one. Everything has been downhill from there . . .

On startup I get the same svchost.exe error, my laptop won't go online, programs such as Spybot won't open, I can't open C: by double-clicking on it, the windows layout keeps switching to classic etc.

Please the orginal poster or myself, it really sounds like the same virus/trojan.

Someone on another site suggested it could be Win32/Injection.HP trojan but I haven't found any ways to get rid of it yet.
