its probably an internet explorer shell extension..
you can use this program to disable all non microsoft ones until you find
the one that is the culprit..

I am assuming you are sending this message from another pc..
so download that,
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.zip
unzip it. this does not need installation,
and write it on to a cd then pace it inisde the crashing explorer pc, and
press CTRL SHIFT ESC so the taskmanager will start
then go to FILE AND RUN and type the path of the program you have on the cd
for example if its the cd drive is D
type
d:\shexview.exe
and press enter.. then right click disable all NON microsoft shell
extensions (usually colored in PINK)
do a restart and your pc will most likley stop crashing the explorer
do a scan for viruses and spyware-malware
tell me if this helps
