Vista - rundll32 not working?

Hi
I'm getting the message
"Windows host process (rundll 32) has stopped working"
it seems to be part of the install process
Anyone know what's wrong and how to fix please?

Very "generic" error. It's like saying: "A warning sign went on". Yup good,
but you have to say more.

Saucy

whole google is before you
"rundll32 has stopped working" - Szukaj w Google
generally some codecs cause this problem i.e Ligos codecs,Nero codecs,Vista Codecs Pack and many other...

for precision go to:

Start>>Search>>eventvwr.msc

check errors messages in Application section

From google searches it appears that Nero could be the culprit
So I'm trying this suggestion to see

=================================

Ok this is an easy fix. I had exactly the same problem.

1. Go to computer, your main drive, program files, common files,
Ahead, DSfilter.

2. Rename "NeroVideoProc.ax" to say "1NeroVideoProc.ax"

3. Rename "NeVideo.ax" to say "1NeVideo.ax"

4. Reboot

What's the specific fault information for this crash according to the
Problem Reports and Solutions control panel's "View Problem History"?

When did this start happening? Are you noticing any other effects? Have
you run up-to-date anti-virus/trojan/keylogger software on your system?

yesterday. i did a virus sweep and stuff on safe mode and it found a trojan32 and other programs and now my windows.exe crashes everytime. so i guess its infected lol. now, by what steps do i go by to get it fixed, resetting the OS? i have the disk but i dont think that has all the programs. and how much would it cost? seeing as how i spent 700 dollars on it last week.
