I have been getting a really annoying error lately every time I reboot. The error message "Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" appears a few minutes after start-up. I click "To see what data this error report contains, click here." and it shows this: AppName: explorer.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.3156 ModName: ws2_32.dll ModVer: 5.1.2600.2180 Offset: 0000664d I have run Spybot S&D, Ad-Aware Professional and Trend Micro OfficeScan but i still get the problem every time I restart my computer. Although my windows seems to be working properly after I click "don't send" (due to restore settings?), the error message annoys me every time i restart my computer. What shall I do to repair the problem? Please let me know if you need my HJT log. Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon! Kaye |
