Reply:Explorer is the Windows user shell. It should be in your C:\Windows or C:\WINNT directory. You should probably scan for adware and viruses. Something had to put the extra (tainted?) copy in the root directory of C:. Something is fishy. I would check to see how many copies of Explorer.exe you have. If you have the one in the Windows/WINNT directory, then I think you can safely remove any that may be in the root directory. Of course, I would also check the sys.ini file and the registry as well. Oh, and you may wish to try the MSConfig program to see if Explorer is getting loaded additionally at startup.





PS., Explorer.exe is not the same as Iexplore.exe. The first one is the system shell, not Internet Explorer as is the second one.
Reply:wat have u installed recently? or at about the time that problem started? try uninstalling that. get hijackthis, scan ur computer wit it and search for a website that tells u wat entries to delete, get ad-aware and scan ur computer, and scan wit ur antivirus, but u sure its on C:\explorer? and not C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe? ummm and just in case, download a lil program called atf-cleaner it will delete all ur temp files, there might be something in there.....
