Windows Desktop Search and the Blue Screen of Death, kinda sorta related

[NewsBot]

In that, when I have WDS installed I get frequent Blue screens, and when I don't I get fewer blue screens.

 

The root cause*seems to be*either an encrypted file system called Pointsec, or the fact this Dell Laptop they gave me at work is a pile of pants.

Anyway, it would appear that WDS pushes my laptop over the edge of unreliability, and I was wondering whether anyone else had experienced software pushing their system a tad too far. This is irritating because it means I can't use WDS on this machine, and have to find things... shock horror... by hand. (metaphorically)
