Explorer.exe Constantly Crashes When Browsing/Deleting/Examining Files

UPDATE***: Problem was a shell extension that caused explorer to crash.

It is related to the SECUROM shell extension that is a CD protection device that comes along with certain games. I have verified it after disabling, and it is the cause of all problems.

Yeah Mark, I thought I might have caused the problem myself, but I was very careful and kept a backup (which I used to restore Dr. Watson). Thanks for your input and help.
