I'm getting an error message that says:

Explorer.exe Application error
The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005) Click on OK to terminate the application

I log on and my icons or toolbars do not appear on the screen at all. RIght now I'm working in safe mode. I've done defragmentation, and virus scan. I've come up with nothing. IT's a Dell computer and I've had it since september.

Please help. what should or can I do myself.
