Grab all the Windows updates that are availible. It could be that the RPC stack is 
being corrupted and bringing the spool service down.

If you are on dialup, its possible to download only the needed patches, but in all 
honesty you would be better off grabbing the lot.

Start IE --> Tools --> Windows Update   Just follow the onscreen instructions when 
you get there.

If your on dialup, post back your service pack level and I'll find the links to the 
relevant patches.
