What is the DrWatson Postmortem Debugger? What does it do? I keep gettin windows explorer encountered error and once in a while after i press send report or close i get DrWatson Postmortem Debugger has encountered error and must close and then my whole comp freezes til I go into Task Manager and end process on drwat32.exe. Whats is this DrWatson and is it the reason my comp is gettin the windows explorer error? Need help and fast. Ive tried adware and spybot and antivirus and nothin has worked. Thanks;)
I keep getting an error message saying "Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconveniece." Then i have option to send report or dont send. whichever one

In Windows HELP, click Index, then type
dr.watson

Description of the Dr. Watson for Windows (Drwtsn32.exe) Tool
The Dr Watson log file is used by technical persons to solve problems with programs, and may be quite large.

Also check out THIS recent thread. It could be something else apart from the genuine Dr. Watson of Microsoft Windows. I'm still baffled why people get it every once in a while. I tried look it up in my desktop Help and Support to no avail.
