    Everytime I log onto my NAs and select folders with music or video in it I get an error message that explorer.exe needs to shut down. When I look at the reason it says that there are two programs causing the isue. One is explorer.exe.mdmp running in my temp folder. When I search there is no program called that there. I read somewhere to do a hijack this scan and post the log here for help, so here goes.

    Let me know what other data you need.
