CShellExtension error in XP?

[Peter]

In my just-installed Windows XP Pro, whenever I right-
click on a desktop icon (to, for example, Rename or Move
it), I get some sort of "CShellExtension" error message
(which I gather has something to do with the "handler").
I can get past it by clicking Esc three times, but it sure
is a hassle.

Any suggestions?

Hi Peter,

If you have Steganos II Security Suite installed go to:
Start/Run/Regedit and delete this key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shellex\DropHandler
If this is present: {a230b063-db0b-11d2-bca4-000001248331}
