That is for ShockWave Flash.

Just browse your way over to the MacroMedia web site and reinstall Flash from there.

I has this problem, and evenyually realised that not only did it appea
after the system had been on standby, but it also appeared when m
screensave should have "kicked in". I then noticed that the scree
saver I had selected was one was nolonger stored on my PC. Thereby, b
simply going to my control panel display setting, and selecting
different screensave, the problem has been solved, and I no longer ge
this error message, instead a screensaver.

Simple. I hope it works for you.
This was a problem that only arose after I had installed XP servic
pack 2, so I can only presume that installing SP2 also removed m
screensavers that were not windows based.
