Ekiga & other programs throw exception - Patch Tuesday?

[mjc001]

Ekiga used to work, but now gets stopped at an echo test with:
Visual Studio Just-In-Time-Debugger
An unhandled win32 exception occurred in ekiga.exe[5484].............
I've had the same problems, that have suddenly emerged, with
MingSweeper, VirtualBox.
I got rid of the JIT trap by deleting:
Delete the following registry keys: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE
\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug\Debugger
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework
\DbgManagedDebugger
Now it throws a generic Windows error: ekiga.exe has encountered a
problem and needs to close........
windows exception code 0xc0000005
The problem may be actually with my Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000, but
I'm not sure.
Regardless, MingSweeper has the same problem, and I haven't exactly
tried all of my programs yet.
Have any of you had similar experience after the latest MS XP updates?
