Sometimes when I right click on a Folder icon, everything disappears except
an open My Documents folder and my wallpaper. Obviously some conflict is
happening. Does anyone know how to fix it?
Thanks

Software running in the background may cause this. See "How to
Troubleshoot By Using the Msconfig Utility in Windows XP"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=310560) and "How to Perform a
Clean Boot in Windows XP" (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=310353).

Hello Freddo,
Do you have SP2 and Divix? If so Divix is causing your problem, you can
check their site for the newest version in which I believe the problem is
fixed

Michael Ortega,
Thanks, yes I was using an early version of DivX. I now have DivX Pro v5.2.1
installed.Though on page - http://support.divx.com/cgi-bin/divx.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=731
"Right-clicking files in Windows Explorer may cause Explorer to crash"
refers to Dr DivX, so it could be a while before I know for sure we have
solved the right click issue.
Thorsten Matzner,
Thanks to you too. I have made note of your reference "How to Troubleshoot
By Using the Msconfig Utility" most interesting and may be useful now or
later.
