I've got a user, when they double click on the My Computer Icon they get an error message about explorer.exe has generated errors, windows will be shutdown. So the screen refreshes. Usually happens every other time you double click My Computer Icon.
The name of it has not been changed. System configuration Windows 2000 w/ SP@2 and IE 5.5 SP2
Any tips and suggestions would help. I tried logging as different users, and still get the same results.
