Hello people. I am receiving this error message every time I turn on my computer. After I click ok, nothing happens. But after a while this error message appears again and again. I am thinking of this as a possible spyware threat. I have SP2 installed and a lot of updates after. Is it because of some potentionally dangerous application, or this is because of some update hotfix that does not agree with some program I have installed on my system? Thanks on every effort.

This could be the symptom of unnecessary update that makes conflict with some particular dll. Have you installed your Service Pack 2 manually after installation of windows or it came together, integrated? This is very important, because you can update your MS software with some pieces of code and apply these, no matter if they are already present in the system. This can cause the core process called Generic Host Process, to break rapidly. After update of complete Service Pack 2, around 270 megabytes, you dont need any critical updates for Windows if you are using good antivirus and firewall protection.
