Can anyone help me with this error message that I continue to receive upon shutting down my computer? "Explorer has created an error in . Explorer will now close. If the problem continues, try restarting your computer." I've contacted Dell support several times without any assistance. All I need to know is how to correct this error once and for all. My operating system is Windows ME. Thanks.
