George,

Well, last night I crashed again when I was opening Outlook Express, after 4
full days of no crashes. Actually it was svchost that crashed when OE
opened.
The svchost that runs the COM+ EventSystem, Netman, Rasman and the Tapi
service, not the one that runs RPCSs. The instruction at "0x00000001" was
pointing to itself.

There was a difference this time, I was able to reboot. Because Explorer
was taken out of the equation with the thumbnail fix, I guess. Usually
shutdown hangs on closing Explorer.

So I re-registered thumbvw.dll and then fixed the .xml key as you have
suggested. It's not the cause, but it helps in recovering.

I am not going to pursue this problem, I've already started setting up a new
machine with the program development projects that I am working on. IE6
will not be on that machine, since you recommend staying away from it.
Once all projects are off the problem machine and working well on the new
one, I will wipe out the machine with the problem and rebuild it.
This approach is faster than helping Microsoft debug their software and then
not seeing a fix anyway.

Thanks for all your help, George, it was worth a try,

Gerhard
