I have just started having this problem tonight. Whenever I open a folder such as "My Documents" the following dialogue box appears:



I then have no option but to let it close Windows Explorer. I have tried restarting, I have tried shutting it down, but the problem keeps recurring whenever I try to open a folder on my hard drive. I have never experienced anything like this before and would like to know how to prevent it.

Sometimes computers can be too bloody smart...
