Re: Generic Host Process error



Hi,

Is it the problem described here?
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=894391

Have you restarted the computer after applying it?

The OCA mechanism isn't perfect by any means, and may have misdiagnosed the
problem. The generic host process error can also be due to the installation
of malware, have you scanned the system for spy/ad programs with something
like AdAware or Spybot yet?

Occasionally, I receive a generic host process for Win32 Services error
after I start or restart my computer. When I select error reporting, I
am directed to a Windows site that has a solution
(http://oca.microsoft.com/en/response.aspx?SGD=b17eae55-a5c5-4c4b-927c-bb47ec54853f&SID=1501).
The directions I'm given ask me to access an Update for Windows XP
website. Supposedly, if I download and execute a file, I won't have
this error any more. However, I executed the file and still get the
same error message every so often. What gives? Thanks in advance.
