Explorer crashing when selecting mpeg

B

BG

Got a weird problem, I have a mpeg file that I wanted to move but as soon as
I click on it I get a program error saying explorer.exe has generated errors
and will be closed by Windows.

In the Dr Watson log it says;
Application exception occurred:
App: explorer.exe (pid=1008)
When: 3/6/2004 @ 19:05:04.231
Exception number: c0000005 (access violation)

Then further down under the 'Raw Stack Dump' heading it has;
function: <nosymbols>
FAULT ->1c405e78 8b08 mov ecx,[eax]
ds:00000000=????????

It won't play in WMP9 either just crashes that as well!!

Anbody got any ideas what is going on????

TIA

The mpeg is corrupt. What is happening when you select the mpeg is that Windows 2000 Web view is trying to connect to the mpeg for a preview. Since the mpeg is corrupt you get the explorer error.
