windows explorer crashes

Posted: 07-13-2003, 04:02 PM
I hope I am in the right NG. I have been using Kazaa for a while now
and all of a sudden I am having this problem.
Since I have a lot of music I have d/l I was getting ready to make
folders to organize my music. When I click on the "Shared Folder" I
get the error that windows explorer has created an error and has to
shut down. I do not get this on any other program. I thought that at
first I had some kind of a virus even though I have an anti-virus
program running all the time. However, I ran a deep anti-virus check
with no problems. I then ran one on line with McAfee and it found
none, then I ran one with Trend Micro and it did find one and said it
cleaned it. After running the program a second time, there were no
viruses.
Then the desktop clears to a blues screen and within a few seconds I
get the full desktop with all icons.
I really would hate to have to delete the folder since there is quit a
few songs I want to keep. Yes, I can "Try" and redownload again,
however, if there is a way to fix this problem first, I would preferr
that method. I have also deleted all information in the registry that
pertains to Kazaa and even tried to reload Kazaa to fix the problem.
No such luck. ANY assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Kazaa, obviously, isn't part of XP. Therefore, whatever issues you may be
having with it, do not belong in this - or any other - MS newsgroup.

And it is very obvious from your response and others that you have
posted that 1. you can not read very well and 2. you are a person who
feels you can take your frustrations on out in this NG in your curt
responses to people who need help. Personally I think you need to see
a head shrink.
Thanks for nothing.
Oh, by the way, I presume they do teach you how to read in your
country?

Boot into safemode and try changing the "shared folder" name to something
else, then uninstall Kazaa. Run Spybot to clean out any spyware that may
have been installed. If you still want to use a P2P program go to

Technically no, kazza does not install spyware, (BTW, spyware you do not
agree to download. This 'spyware' is made clear that it will be installed).
