Hoster program shuts down every 5 minutes

I checked all updates and found there were many I evidently didn't install.

I also did a fix Microsoft support gave me and then reinstalled them. So far so good... knock on wood (my head).
Thanks Alan

Hey Alan,
The only wondows updates that have ever given me problems were hardware related. If your sound card and video card are working correctly, I advise that you leave these updates alone, they can cause your cards to stop working (did to me once anyway ). Get the rest and all should be fine

So far all is well. Updated sound and video from manufacturers. Thanks Alan

That is always the best place to do it. Microsoft really should not post any hardware updates except for their own hardware (keyboards and mice). Anytime I see a hardware update on Microsoft's list I tell them to hide it, then go to mfg web site and see if they released a new one and if it was actually for my hardware model.

Thanks to all for great assistance. Alan
