BleepingComputer.com: Vista Updated and now ERRORS

I came home from a business trip, and Vista had updated and restarted - now I get things like "Superfetch has stopped working" and other such errors. Reboots out of the blue as well.

Hi, go to system restore and restore from before the updates were installed.

sysmain.dll can either be malware or your Superfetch service.
Try a couple of these free, online scanners to see if anything has slipped by your protection:
(Be advised that some of these scanners will pickup things in "quarantine" from other anti-virus programs - so review the results carefully)

If you find that you're infected (or the scan doesn't complete or closes unexpectedly), post in the Am I Infected forum located here: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/forum103.html
If you're not infected, post back here and we'll try some more stuff.

If not infected, post back and we'll have a go at disabling the Superfetch service temporarily.
