Hello there

My computer keeps crashing when I try to open folders, with the Dr Watson Postmortem Debugger Problem. Can't go to Explorer or Control Panel. I've installed and ran Ad-Aware, CW Shredder & Spybot. I've done a full system check and I have SP2 on the machine. Don't know what the next step is. I've run a Hijack this file and it's contents are below. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Don't I lose everything that I've installed on my PC if I format? Can anyone out there have a look at the Hijack Log and come with a suggestion? Maybe it's something straightforward? Thanks.

Click Start. Open My Computer.
Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options. Select the View Tab.

Cheers for the info

I've printed it all out. I'm looking at the above instruction. I can't go into My Computer as it crashes each time. Is there a way around this?

Hi

When I Choose "Yes" at the ActiveX Security Warning Prompt it tries to install but then shuts down with the following message

The following add on was running when this problem occurred
d3rf.dll

I've tried this twice.

The only other application I have open is this website.

Thanks

I had the same problem and I went to www.trendmicro.com and ran a virus scan. Turns out I had 30 Trojan Virus'. As soon as I got those deleted, things were fine.
