Vista BSOD

Just a note that may be of use to those who have Vista.

My quad core machine recently started intermittently throwing up a Blue Screen of Death and shutting down.

Some googleing revealed that it's a common problem caused by security centre alerts.

After telling security centre to not notify the BSOD problem is now gone.

It's little wonder with bugs like this that Vista has been nicknamed the new ME and one third of Vista users apparently have downgraded to XP. If I didn't need Vista to make the most of the Quad core CPU it would be gone in a flash.
