658401 2008-04-13 10:39:00 I am using W XP sp2 with firefox as the browser. all patches etc are up to date. My problem is when visiting web pages the pade will freeze. On checking control panel/administrative tools/event viewer/system I discover this message - The server's call to a system service failed unexpectedly.
I have searched google and all comments on this problem refer to W 2000 servers.
Can anyone shed some light on this frustrating annoyance

Can you test Internet Explorer and see if you get the same problem?
This will tell us if it is a browser specific problem or not.

not a browser problem as I caught the computer rebooting itself and on checking the same error message was found

658404 2008-04-14 06:16:00 Hi, is that a system or application event error, have you checked automatic services to see which one is stopped, or is this an application call from browsing? SolMiester (139)
