My computer, oddly enough, is acting up (again).

I'm currently using Windows XP SP1. It seems a lot of 3d applications absolutely refuse to run, quitting as soon as they're opened. I turned on critical error notification in order to see if I got more info about it... The applications just seem to crash by themselves, so nothing there.

I noticed, however, some apparently unrelated yet regular (read: every damn minute) crashes from WMI. Sample from the crash error message:
szAppName : wmiprvse.exe szAppVer : 5.1.2600.1106
szModName : kernel32.dll szModVer : 5.1.2600.1106 offset : 00012b5a

What's suspicious some computers at school have the same error message from WMI popping up, and constant crashes as well. I was thinking it maybe a worm using some recent Win XP vulnerability... But I don't know for sure.

I'm posting this here to know if anyone heard of a similar crash problem?
