Fix explorer.exe & ieexplore.exe issues
[Vista tips]
* For Windows Explorer crashes: There is an error in which you could be stuck in a loop where an error appears every 30 seconds, causing your computer to "refresh" constantly, stuck in the loop even in Safe Mode. I call this the death loop, because even a system restore will not always solve the problem. Lucky for you, despite the many causes there are two solutions which work 98% of the time. First, try opening task manager, select system idle process and kill it. You must be quick, before the refresh. Now, start + r and run "explorer.exe". If no dice, RUN > browse > system32 > sort by type > sort by date. Now, find the newest .DLL file, delete it, restart. Repeat one by one until the error stops or you reach back before the error started; it is important to remember to restart after each .dll file delete, and use recycling bin just in case you need to restore it. I know more on this, so if these don't work just post in here and I will help you out.

* For Internet Explorer crashes: if it happens when watching a flash video, it is most likely a messed up video codec. Want to know why resetting “Advanced Settings” works for some people? Because the full security settings will block the error, which is in essence going to block flash.ocx, and thus flash video. Want to know what causes the other crashes, and how to fix it? It depends on which problem you have. For many, the crash occurs at a specific point every time, say on a particular website. This is caused by a scripting error on these sites, which would have been written in a 3GL and the debuggers don't catch it because, like everything else by M$, it isn't Vista compatible. Want proof of my findings? Go to this site {{after you bookmark the one you are on}}. Easiest solution: get Firefox 3. It is hell of a lot better than IE, and you can personalize to look identical to IE 7 down to every detail (even tabbed browsing). Other people are plagued with the same "Internet explorer has blah, blah; internet " error message, but they only get it every now and then, with no apparent pattern, and only after they have just closed Internet Explorer. This usually happens when you have Office 2007 installed. If both problems are present, press start and r to open a run box, then type dcomcnfg. Browse to: Component services > computers > my comp > dcom config. You may get an error: "The CLSID [9DB6C03C-C511-11D2 ETC], microsoftshared...WKSCAL.EXE, & Works Cal had value AppID, but is not recorded in \\hkey_Classes_root\appId. Do you wish to record it?" If that happens, or something similar, select "yes". This is usually caused by a corrupted file from Flash. Find flash.ocx in your add-ons, remove it, and then download the full install of Flash (not the updater) to your desktop. Then, right click the file and "run as admin". Other causes of the second issue with IE (but not the first): RAM leak. Try to open IE and then close it real quick (while it is still loading) to see if you get the error. If so, congrats. You probably have faulty memory. Run your memory tool, which can be found at %SystemRoot%\system32\MdSched.exe or by hitting start and typing the word "memo...." The other cause, like I mentioned, could be Office. Go to add/remove programs, right click Office if you got it, and select "change". Then, hit "repair". This seems to work for many people. You could also run the Office diagnostic tool, but for some reason it seems to be hit and miss. Also, if you have "OmniPage", uninstall it. This is a well-known cause of the problem, again due to Vista compatibility. Finally, you can find out if an "add-on" is corrupted or malicious by right-clicking Internet Explorer and running without add-ons. This may even help some with the first problem, as certain add-ons interact with certain decompilers and script debuggers. Another possible cause which has only appeared to have solved less than 3% of issues: Under Internet options, advanced tab, toward the bottom, is the option to "enable memory protection to help mitigate online attacks"; uncheck it and reboot. If you just downloaded a fresh codec because some website asked you to watch a video, especially for Windows Media Player, you are a gullible n00b. Can't believe you fell for it, and you got what you deserved. You are on your own; start with virus and malware scans.
