Dodser...This is the registry fix my son found. See here

http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=e...gbl%26rnum%3D2

It was executing a file that would open explorer.

The things that Microsoft had me do did not fix it...but my son did and
emailed this fix to Microsoft...hope it helps you as it did me...Glynnes
