Vista - Reliability analysis metrics

[FiveTimes]

I keep getting the following pop-up during normal working conditions -
"reliability analysis metrics calculation executable stopped working"

Anyone else getting this, and if so what is the cure ?

The ony advice I can find is to try "repairing" Vista from the installation media.

And let me preempt those about to say it means "get a Mac"

I think (can't remember) I had this when I first got Vista.
I do remember removing and then reloading MS Office 07. and it went away.

Can't be sure mind.
