Hi everybody!
Here's my problem: My taskbar stops responding every time widows XP Home
Edition SP3 startup, it freezes or hangs. only ctrl+alt+del works. I
formatted my system twic. Checking for processes in Task Manager but nothing
that spikes during the activity. I tried to end the explorer process and
nothing, but if i start a new process of explorer the windows work ok.

I have a Intel core 2duo 3.00Ghz / 2Gb ram

Help please.

Thanks

Copy and paste the following into your Notepad and save as explorer.reg on
your Desktop and then right click it and select merge to merge to your
registry:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
"Shell"="explorer.exe"

Reboot your machine, does it help?
If it doesn't then try to run this command:
sfc /scannow
HTH,

Ignore any posts made by the Stalker Leythos, he's still in love with me.
He started stalking me after I spurned his advances towards me.
He said he would stop Stalking me If I stopped mentioning his name.
As you can see that does not work. He is a sick obsessive STALKER.
