This might not be it but have you changed you google password. Google has been hacked twice this year. I notice that you use Chrome and I am assuming you have a google acct. Like I said this might not be it.

have been using Chrome .. on Beta since ages...
even the 12 Beta ever since it's inception...
never had any issues...
I think it has nothing to do with the 'Chrome' factor..
and if it was indeed a windows error... why the random garbage title ?

run a scan with avast and malwarebytes
if you still are suspicious the post a OTS log and let Essexboy have a look inside

do 'normal' memory errors, have such random titles ?
scanning with the latest MalwareBytes
strange thing is MalwareBytes clashes with AVASTSvc.exe
no idea why we aren't on their 'safe' list
