I am running no AV. My system has a clean fresh install from 2 weeks ago writing zeros to the HD. I know how to run a system without needing bloated SV software and stay safe. I haven't had a virus in 6 years. My startup is stripped of any non-core files and only executing those needed for the OS to run. As I stated above, if I stop explorer.exe and then restart it the file is released. The link to the thread @ MS forums above makes it clear that this is a bug with Win7 from the many accounts of others having this problem at times and it being qualified by proof of concept. They need to address it. I've spent 1000's of hours scripting with XP and never had this problem.
