Hi
For the past week i've had this problem where i would turn on my
computer and after the log in screen it would tell me that Windows
Explorer stop responding.

So far I've tryed:
- Doing both System Restore and Startup repair using the Windows Vista
disc and no luck.

- Going to regedit and checking the shell fine ... but its fine because
it has "explorer.exe" in it.

As for that i haven't trying much with this situation.
I can fix it temp by doing CRTL-ALT-DELETE > Task Manger > New Task >
explorer.exe but that only does it till the system is turned off and i
want to completely fix this problem so my computer starts up normaly.

Hi,

What does the userinit key show under this key?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Should be just this:

C:\Windows\system32\userinit.exe,

If there is anything appended after the comma, you may have a malware issue.
Have you run a spyware scan recently? The above is not the only location
that these bugs can come from, and many of them can interfere with the
windows shell.

Best of Luck,
