"Show in folder" never works

Several applications on my system have a "Show in folder" option. None
of them work, though they did in the past. The applications include
most browsers, for example. It is unlikely that they are all ding
something wrong.

I presume they are just launching explore.exe with suitable
parameters. There's nothing wrong with explore.exe on my system as far
as I can tell (other than this problem).

Any suggestions?

Could you please supply a situation and a specific application where you
see an "Show in folder" option. I have IE7, Opera 10.x, and Firefox
3.5.x, and I do not see any context menu item named "Show in folder".

In what other applications besides browsers do you see this option?
