This is almost always related to "Addins". Remove all Addins and see if you
still have the problem.
If the problem goes away, add them back one at a time till you find the
offender.
Also, always disable that error window on a development box.
Right-click on MyComputer and click properties.
Select Advance Tab
Click the Error Reporting button
Follow the instructions...
