I run windows 2000 Professional Workstation, newly installed on a new
computer. I have an updated version of Norton Antivirus 2004.
But I've encountered a major bug. I believe the problem occured after I
updated my internet explorer to version 6.0 SP1. After surfing the internet
a few minutes I tend to get an error message:
"svchost.exe has generated an error and will be closed. An error log will be
created."
After this the PC and internet works just fine, exept I cannot drag icons
with my mouse, I cannot copy or move files/folders and I cannot open links
in a new i-exporer window. Also the Norton Anti-Virus seems to have problems
when requesting the system status.
Have anyone encountered any similar? Any solutions? And where is this error
log stored? Please help!
