Sorry mate.

Unless it's telling you XPCom Event Receiver. That I believe has something to do with Firefox.

Try these things ...

try going to start, settings, control panel, administrative tools, services, click on web client twice and set it to manual . this seemed to fix my shutdown problem which started when I installed firefox 2.0.


and

using FF2.0? Try disabling any add-ons or extenstions, one at a time to see which one is cauing the error at shutdown. First one I'd disable is Talkback, located in Tools/add-ons.

If neither work google the error for more info.
