Take a look at this similar question.

Here is a quick method to see if you can spot the problem process. Please do this on a system that you can afford to reload / re-image and have backed up.

Login
Run Process Explorer as an admin / elevated rights. (SysInternals tool)
Save the process list. (File | Save As).
Turn OFF DEP.
Reboot.
Login
Run Process Explorer as an admin.
Save the process list. (File | Save As).
Compare the two lists.
Any differences could be your culprit.
Turn on DEP.
Next, one at a time, add the items you found to the DEP exception list rebooting each time and testing.

Once you find the culprit, you can work with the vendor or add a DEP exception for the application.

DEP actions should leave some kind of detailed information in the system event log to include the application / process that caused the issue. MS is bad about placing detailed information on actions like these into the log though.

So, you get the message on all client computers, right ?
Could you please post the complete message, and the title of the message box ?
What happens if you log into the local computer (not the domain) ? do you get the message ?
When did this message start to appear ? Did it start at the same time on all computers ?

Look for any event log messages at the time that this occurs.

Also, it seems that the clients are XP computers. What’s the SP level of these computers ?

Thanks once again!
the message is DATA EXECUTION PREVENTION - MS WINDOWS
”TO HELP PROTECT YOUR COMPUTER, WINDOW HAS CLOSED THIS PROGRAM”.
Name: Generic Host for win32 Services
Publisher: Microsoft Corperation.

What happens if you log into the local computer i get it more often. It didnt start at the same time, it first started on like 2-3 computers but now is occuring on all the PCs. and they are all SP2 win XP. vista clients dont receive this error.

please assist

It could be something generated by a Microsoft update.
Is there some reason why you cannot install service pack 3 on this computers ?

That’s the first thing I would do.
