Ok, hopefully someone can help me out. This is driving me NUTS! On occasion when I would explore folders on my system running XP Pro SP2 I would get the "Windows Explorer has encountered an error and must shut down" message. At first, even with the message up I could still browse the folders and do what I needed to do and then click "OK" on the error box. Now, I have about 5 seconds before it shuts it down, usually not even enough time for me to tag a file to copy and move it to another directory etc. I have Norton Antivirus on and 3-4 spyware programs and removed anything I found. I even reformatted my system with a clean OS install and I'm still getting it. I can't figure it out. I have all the latest hotfixes installed, I even unistalled all of them one by one and still get the problem. I use my main box to download vid files and things like that then copy them to my second PC and burn them etc. I don't get this on every directory I browse, my P2P program download directory almost ALWAYS brings up the message. And I mapped a folder on my 2nd PC to be a network drive and almost everytime I try to access that I get the message. Both systems have the same OS and SP's with all the hotfixes. I just don't understand what's going on. If it was just a problem accessing my 2nd PC from the main I would guess it's a network error, but I get the error browsing my own P2P directory. Any help or ideas is greatly appreciated. VERY frustrating.
