The Indexing Service filter daemon keeps crashing on my Windows XP Pro machine, with the following error message:
Indexing Service filter daemon has encountered a problem and needs to close.  
We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Not a big deal, I can click "Don't Send Error Report" all day. But what's going on, here? Is this a service that I need? Is the frequent crashing indicative of something worse that's happening behind the scenes?
