Suddenly my WinXP-Pro windows explorer won't let me open
folders. I can open explorer, and expand folders with
the + sign, but if I click on any individual folder to
open it, explorer closes.... no error messages or
anything. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!!

This problem was solved by using a suggestion given... I
located a version of Explorer.exe, which was downloaded on
one of the service-pack updates, changed the name and sent
it to the c:\windows file, then changed my windows
explorer shortcut to point to that file, and now it works
fine. I still don't know what happened to the original
explorer.exe file, but it must be corrupted or something.

Anyway, problem solved for now. Thanks.
