Generic Host Process has encountered a problem...

I noticed a few postings about this problem in the past.

I just had the same thing happen again today and the crash report screen said there is a solution available.

The update to fix the problem is: Update for Windows XP (KB894391)

and the link is:

Apologies if this has been mentioned before but if it has I didn't notice.

I for one never mind anything being reposted.  Sometimes takes several times for me to get it.    or be reminded of it.
This is the same link that I posted in that other link...you posted in... and then referred us to.  OH WOW 
Anyway I had downloaded the patch or fix  in mid May and it is still siting on my desktop.  I look at it every once in awhile, but am still concerned MS is still testing it.
I know the flaw is still there as I get the Error Message on rare occasions.
Getting Up Courage to install.

Seemed to work fine.

Edit: Yes, I see what I did now: I missed page two of the other thread when I posted there.
