Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer stop working in my user account about 45 minutes after rebooting and logging on. If I log on to another use account, while the original account is still open, windows explorer and Internet explorer don't work at all.

When I right click Computer, or any drive, or select search from the start menu, then click explore, the task bar goes away for a couple of seconds then reappears, and the explorer window, search window, or internet explorer do not open.

I have performed all of the Malware/Spyware removal, and I still have the same problem. I posted this in the operating system forum and it was suggested that I post it here.

Thanks
