Hey Well there are several differnt problems people have with Explorer.exe Check out http://support.microsoft.com/search...KeywordType=ALL&maxResults=150&Titles=false&n Just go through and click on the links and see if you have those symptons. If you do, it should tell you have to fix it, or a patch to download. If you would of given more info, i could of helped a little more. CJC
Had exact same problem, Got rid of SP2 (needed clean install anyway...) No more problem! Since then I found out SP2 breaks all DivX codecs. (I use DivX 5.2 Pro) Their latest codec (5.2.1) is required, and is the only one SP2-compatible. In 'fixes' they provide a perfect description of the problem - just like you said. Now I have installed DivX Pro 5.2.1 but I'm still sticking with SP1a I will wait until all the little freeware/shareware programs & utilities I use come to be up-to-speed with SP2. L8R
