This is a persistent problem I have had for many months. I have McAfee
running all the time; I've run scans, I've run Adware; I've run chkdsk; I
even backed off SP3 and reinstalled it - all to no avail. The error dumps
fill up my HD requiring me to delete the files periodically. Also, explre
runs VERY slow when I open a folder for the first time. I have an ACER
Aspire 5000 notebook w/ AMD Turion and 1.2GB memory. I have a ton of error
msgs in event viewer. It appears that a new one is created even when I'mnot
doing anything. Below is a sample. Please help.

Nass - Thank you very much for your help! I did everything that both you
and Leonard suggested, but I still have the problem. I suspect that malware
may not be causing my problem. Yes, I'm getting the DEP and Win32 msgs every
time I boot the system. I noticed that it only occurs if a svchost.exe dump
file exists. I can usually avoid these msgs if I delete those files before I
re-boot. I monitor that directory while I'm running and I can see when a dump
file appears. It happens consistently when I launch Explore or IE. A
potential memory problem never occured to me. I'm not aware of any
diagnostic tool that came with my system. Can you recommend one that won't
require creation of a boot disk?
I'm sending you the Hijackthis log file.
