this seems to be a problem that is getting more and more widespread if you
read some of the other posts,just about eveyday there is apost regarding this
,i replied to one yesterday .in my case it seemed to be an incompatible
program that caused it the only solution to my knowledge is a system restore
from start up if you are running nav2007 you will need aditional info to
perform this . if any mvp's or tech guys are reading this maybe they have a
better solution .

Simon, do you happen to have Zip Genius installed. I haven't tried it with
the latest version, t.03.1140 which is supposed to fix the problem, but the
previous version had a known issue of randomly crashing Explorer and there
seemed to be a link to various types of files or files using certain types
of compression. Nonetheless, if you remove Zip Genius, assuming it is
installed, the problem clears up immediately.

You're welcome, Simon.

Make sure your drivers are all up to date and Vista Compatible. Also, make
sure your applications, in this case, especially those dealing with the type
of media that seems to be causing the problem are Vista Compatible and have
all their updates as well.

Good luck.
