Windows explorer keeps shutting down

Unread postby waterhorse » March 8th, 2008, 9:37 am

Hoping you can help out. Windows explorer on my system keeps shutting down when I open a folder, wish to transfer files between folders or attempt to open Windows Media Player. My system is running very slowly. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. :roll:

I apologize for the very long delay. We have a huge backlog of HijackThis Logs to handle and it has been taking us greater time than normal to get caught up. If you are still having a problem, and want us to analyze your information, please post a brand new HijackThis log, along with a description of any problems you are experiencing. If we do not hear back from you within a couple of days we will need to close your topic.

When posting your logs please post them directly into the reply. Do not attach them.

Thank you for your patience.

If you still need help open a new thread in the Malware Removal forum and wait for a new helper.
