Windows Explorer Crashing Randomly

Well I went to go try system restore but the farthest one back is from the
20th before installing windows updates. About the time the problem started
was when I did disk clean up and defrag and I got rid of all the previous
system restore points. During the defrag though it stopped midway through so
I had to close it out. Sometime around that either before or after was some
updates.

Do you want me to go back before doing the updates just to see if it helps
at all. In other words could it have been from the updates or my disk
cleanup/defrag session?

Updating everyone on the status of my problem, Bob. How bout instead of
harassing me about the relevance of my post in MY HELP thread, you try and do
something productive and actually TRY to HELP me Bob. Stop being a whining
Willy and do something that may fix my problem

4:00 put my computer into sleep mode. Came back at 7:00 and the first thing
that happened after logging in was explorer crashing.

Anyone have any idea what to do to try and fix this issue. I'll run the
oldest system restore here in a bit and update on here whether it has helped
or not. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated though. Thanks.

Wake up! I am trying to help you. If you don't include the relevant info you
limit the number of responses you get. Get it?

Shortly after my last post on February the 27th. I did a system restore back
to the 20th. No problems the rest of the night, and no problems on the 28th.
But today I put the computer too sleep at 12:30 and came back at 3:10. When
I logged in the first thing that happened was the explorer crashing. I sent
another report in as well. Like what I had reported last time there was a
problem trying to report my explorer problem. "Windows Problem Reporting"
"WERCWEvent"

This is getting pretty annoying, has no one thought of anything to fix this
or any idea what the hell is happening. I've been keeping it up todate on
updates, I've been reguraly scanning it with Anti-Virus, Spyware removal
tools etc...

Suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated
