While working in Win XP Pro SP2 sometimes about 1hr+ I get an error report
message saying Windows Explorer Has Encountered an Error and needs to shut
down. I click on send to send the problem off and it does then I click close
and my taksbar vanishes only to pop back but the icons in my tray have
vanished.

It keeps doing it even when I use WMP10 if I exit the program or play a
video sometimes it will do the same thing. There's fix from Microsoft has
they've never encountered this problem does anyone know what I could do to
fix it. I've tried to see if I can re-install IE6 SP2 but there's no set-up
file for it so I'm stuck.

My system is below:

Windows XP Pro SP2
AOPEN AK79D-400 MAX motherboard
AMD Athlon XP 2500+ (2.2ghz)
Geil Value 1GB DDR400 PC3200 Memory
Hitachi Deskstar 80gb SATA150 HDD
Benq 16x DVD-RW
Sony 16x DVD-ROM
GeForce FX5200 128mb AGP Card
 
Hi Dave :-)

Try the following and see if it helps:

Here's the instructions for repairing IE. However, I suggest that you check
your system for any scumware that might be causing the problem first, as a
repair should only be the last resort.
