      4th Dec 2008
I get this message randomly on my XP machine. It started happening after I
installed Norton Ghost 14.0. The machine seems to function OK after it
happens.

Can anybody help here?

Further info is:

szAppName: dllhost.exe szAppVer 5.1.2600.5512
szModName: kernel32.dll szModVer 5.1.2600.5512

The tech information sent to MS is:

After some searching:

http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT...hm&lg=en&ct=us

This problem is apparently not new to them, so there may be more in
the forums.
