Explorer crash!

[Uber Philf]

Hey guys, im having a really strange problem, that when i right click anywhere, my explorer crashes. I was certain that it was FF that was doing it, and no different this time uninstalled it, but odd as it is, the crashing still continues to occur, and i now haven't got a clue why, anybody know what i can/need to provide so i can find out whats causing these crashes? Its ever so consistent i'm about to rip my hair out!

This is possibly the simplest and most reliable way to extract the info necessary to understand the crash without too much guesswork:

If you go through the following to obtain a memory dump generated during the crash, someone may be able to tell you why Explorer is behaving that way:

1) Download and install either the 32-bit or the 64-bit "Debugging Tools" package, depending on your OS type: Debugging Tools for Windows - Overview

2) Open a CMD prompt and CD to the folder where you installed the debugging tools.

3) Run this command:

cscript adplus.vbs -crash -nodumponfirst -minionsecond -quiet -pn explorer.exe

4) Reproduce the Explorer crash.

5) Find the new folder in that same location with a DMP (memory dump) file.

In that dump folder you may find 2 DMP files:

1) A massive one (hundreds of MB) with "1st_chance" as part of its name.
2) A much smaller one (few MB at most) with "2nd_chance" in the name.

It's (2) that I'm primarily interested in right now. Zipped up, that file may only be a few hundred KB in size - small enough to upload here.
