Do you also have the .NET Framework 1.0 installed on your machine? If so,
have you tried reinstalling that in case your applications are executing
against the original release of the Framework? Do you get this problem with
command-line applications?

Searching through our intranet, there are a couple of 3rd party applications
that we've noticed causing this problem (Q326919 provides a little detail).
If you have any macro utilities or desktop extensions enabled, you might
want to try disabling them and see whether that helps. You might even try
running the application having booted Windows in safe mode to prove
conclusively whether it's a software conflict.

Failing that, it would be good to see a stack trace if you have one
available (the detailed message in the Debug window that appears when you
run your failing forms application and click Continue).

Best wishes,
