Workstation 6 Reports an Error and Crashes When Settings are Opened

My installation of Workstation 6 for Windows has suddenly started reporting an access violation, and crashing when I attempt to inspect the settings for a virtual machine. This has the feeling of a problem caused by a windows update...is this a known issue?

Using the error logs generated, I provisionally traced this myself to some software that was installed in the host machine to support a printer. Removing that software appears to have eliminated the problem.
