    For some reason, whenever I use windows explorer to navigate to the c:/windows/system32 folder, it crashes. When I open the folder, windows explorer becomes unresponsive for a second and then says that "Windows explorer has stopped working". Any help?

    Attached are the error reports from windows event viewer.

    According to the info in the text file you attached, the problem is directly related to your Autodesk software (I believe this is CAD software). The offending file appears to be vtkFiltering.dll. It can be found in the Program Files folder in the Autodesk directory: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2011\moldflow\bin\vtkFiltering.dll

    A visit to the Autodesk web site's support page and/or forums may be a good idea . . . here's some links:

    This should be more than enough to get you started and/or straightened out . . . GOOD LUCK!
