Event ID 26

XP Pro SP3:
Every time I log off or shut down Windows, a message box pops up briefly
and the following entry appears in my System Event Log:
Event Type: Information
Event Source: Application Popup
Event Category: None
Event ID: 26
Date: 5/29/2008
Time: 11:11:59 PM
User: N/A
Computer: TOM
Description:
Application popup: dwwin.exe - DLL Initialization Failed : The application
failed to initialize because the window station is shutting down.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
The text of the message box is that which follows "Application popup:"
above.
The message box only stays for a few seconds and then goes away as the
logoff, shutdown or restart proceeds.
This started happening before I installed Service Pack 3. For a while there
were entries in the Application Log that corresponded timewise with the
System Log entry, but that's stopped happening. There's no other entry in
the Event Logs that I can follow up on.
It's so consistent (and annoying) that I've turned off the Critical Stop
system sound, which is a loud "uh-oh".
Help and Support only offers the suggestion to reinstall the application,
but since this appears to be a Windows core program, I really don't know
what to do.
Tom
