rundll32 message help please

Got a message earlier today on the laptop (Vista) saying:

Windows host process (Rundll332) has stopped working.
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

I ran a full scan on malwarebytes but it didn't appear to find anything.
(I can post it if required).

Is there anything else I need to do eg. download superantispyware and try that?

Thanks

    Do you use Nero, or some video editing software by any chance?

    If you can try to update Nero 8 - see if that helps it

    Ive had a look at the Nero site - not sure if you can upgrade to nero 9, but I think Nero 8 upgrade requires you send them your email first, then they send the link, but if the nero 9 upgrade is free then it may be worth upgrading to that one
