Default Rundll32 problem

Starting yesterday, i constantly get a nonstop error message on my windows vista premium machine that says: Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working. Then it gives me another error box that says: Windows Explorer has stopped working. And a final one that says: Windows Explorer is restarting...

PLEASE HELP this error is driving me insane and it started yesterday when i was in photoshop, trying to open a photoshop file that i created on my c drive, and it miraculously stopped giving me the message after a few restarts, a shutdown, and another 10 minutes of watching it pop up over and over, 10 seconds or less apart. Now its doing it again, even faster than yesterday (now every 5 seconds), and it started today when my itunes was installing an update. any ideas? this is sooooo annoying and i'm afraid my computer is going to explode or something..

VISTA IS S**T

Thats a last resort... I wanna try and fix it without having to do that.

perhaps disable Rundll32? or would that not be good for my system??
