I have the same message, although I can ignore it and start the program I want anyway. I do not get the fatal error message.

I did some searching and found a suggested, but possibly risky, fix on www.micro-solutions.com/tech_support/issues/341any.html. I also found that I had different versions of s32evnt1.dll, and Symantec has a download to fix this. It apparently occurs in connection with Norton antivirus. I haven't tried this fix yet.
