My dad's computer crashed with the same message (I did something with Winamp I think although I can't remember exactly what I did to it), although on the first reboot it showed those windows (which are normal after such a crash). My dad hasn't had anything else happen to his computer since then so I assume it's nothing to stress over, unless it happens repeatedly.
