Shortly after I boot up Vistas Home Premium I get a message winservice. exe
has stopped working. How do I fix this?
 
Hi,

Sounds like the Rbot bug. Your AV software removed the file but not the
registry reference that loads it. Run regedit from the start/search line,
navigate to these keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices

Click on each in turn, then check for a string that loads it on the right.
Select and delete just that string from the right pane.
