I haven't had one of these in ages. I have already done an IE Repair to no avail.

Here is the error:

"Exployer caused a general protection fault in module KRNL386.exe at 0002:00005c48"

The strange part of it is this is what causes it to popup:

I had just added another url to my favorites under my "Health" folder. I went back to change the title to something I would recognize. As soon as I highlighted the Health folder and it expanded I got the error.

I deleted the url I put in there and it still does it. I tried several other folders and nothing happens except when I highlight that particular folder. It cycles my screen and goes to the Active Desktop Recovery Screen. I know it has nothing to do with ADR but I turned it off just in case.

What now?

I decided to rename the folder to something else then changed it back to it's original name and the error does not pop up now.

Go figure! Isn't Microsoft wonderful.
