Hello to all:

The Windows 95 Explore From Here power toy works for the 64-bit
Windows explorer as downloaded from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q168113
on Windows XP x64.

I've hacked the EXPLORE.INF and renamed it EXPLORE-X64.INF to create a
second shell extension for the 32-bit Windows explorer.

I hope someone finds this useful.
