Does anyone have any idea why Windows 7 has an APPCRASH way too often on my computer? I notice it mostly when I open Photoshop CS4 Extended. It also occurs random times whenever I try to open folders. Any help on fixing the problem would be greatly appreciated. Heres what I get:

It is not a fix but it is a workaround, I found it is actually being caused by
Windows Live Messenger.
If I close the Messenger application, and I can open and close Photoshop all I want with NO ERRORS. I open Messenger and the very first time I try to open a picture with Photoshop it gives me the error and AppCrash. Hope this helps....
EDIT: Never mind, still get the error but not as often. Hopefully it gets someone a bit closer to a full resolution though.
