I had this problem, and The DCOMbobulator fix above worked for a month or two, but it's back now. &nbsp;It occurs after use of IE, but not every time. &nbsp;Spyware checks have been done. &nbsp;DCOM Server service is disabled.... <br />
I'll post back when I find something else out.

DDE server error on shutdown

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
