The instruction at "0x100179f9" referenced memory at "0x00000030". The memory could not be "read".

I'm getting this whenever I login. I have windows 2000 professional. When someone else logins to the same computer...they do not get the error at all. I'm trying to figure out a way to identify what the difference is with my login and everyone else's. I'm guessing some services or programs must be started during my login that is different from other logins. I compared the services tab under the task manager...but all the services are exactly the same. I think those services are started at the time of bootup and not login anyway so I don't think that is the place to check for differences. There is nothing under my startup folder. Any thoughts?
