    Windows Explore has stopped working. Again and again and again!! ARGH!

    This place has never failed to help me in my hours of need and I much appreciate your thoughts on the following problem which is causing me much frustration!

    Right....

    Running Windows 7 through the free upgrade program about a year or so ago installed over vista.

    Has been working fine up until today, it seems.

    Now all I get, literally every 10 seconds is the "Windows Explorer has stopped working" warning followed by the "Windows Explorer is restarting..." window.

    This is unrelenting, it never stops!

    So any thoughts?

    Equipment:
    Dell Studio 1640 Laptop
    I use Chrome.

    Thank You in advance
