Windows explorer constantly refreshing

I am running windows XP service pack 2. When I open windows explorer it
constantly refreshes itself. Pointer to hour glass every 2 seconds. Has
anyone encountered this??

What does your problem have to do with Windows Update, Ray?

Try Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>Reset Button

You may have a corrupt installation. Uninstall IE7 which will roll you back
to IE6 and reboot your system. Retry IE7 installation

Thanks Gist. My problem is actually with Windows explorer but your response
did help me with an IE7 prob! Thanks again...

PAbear obviously my prob has nothing to do with windows update. I accidently
posted in the wrong forum but thanks for taking your valuable time to state
the obvious.
