This is Sam, doing morning pages for me. His handwriting isn't great, but then neither's mine at 7am.

I have officially been given cat-custody, timing subject to approval. YAY!

Suspicious crashes

The PC keeps encountering a problem with "Generic Host Process for Win32 Services". It's happened four times in the last three hours and every time I've had to restart to get my broadband connection back.

The message comes up after about 10 mins logged on (I just sat on the other side of the room and watched it happen without my having touched the keyboard for 5 mins).

I'm only running Firefox and Notetab (under, I'mverysorry, Windows XP). I checked the Micros*ft site re this problem, and there's a patch, but it's not at all recent -- so what I'm suspicious about is the way it's suddenly started happening. Can't think of how it could be caused by having unplugged and moved the PC, then moved it back, and that's all that's changed since Before Problem.

Any ideas? Virus? Physical damage? Weird hardware thing? Mercury in retrograde? Absence of cat urine in carpet?

waiting for a phone call, so ...

What about the DLR? Eh? Eh?
