Windows explorer, as opposed to Internet explorer. They are two enitrely different programs. Some people also refer to windows explorer as My computer. My question is not about Internet explorer the web browser, it is about Windows explorer/my computer.
I just recently installed IE7 yahoo version. Now everytime I try to run yahoo instant messenger, my taskbar (the thing at the bottom of my windows with all the program tabs on it) dissapears along with all of my desktop icons. In addition, my Windows explorer will not run at all. If i click on "My computer" or the "windows explorer" icon, or even try to go to the control panel, my taskbar and icons also disappear.
I have run panda antivirus, spybot, adaware, and they all turn things up every time I run them, say they remove them, and the problem doesnt go away. Hijackthis does not show anything I don't recognize. I also ran Microsoft malicious software remover, and it did not help either.
Not getting the issue in safe mode.
My computer/windows explorer will not run, and Yahoo instant messenger makes my taskbar dissapear?virus removal
OK - a couple of points before I tackle the problem. IE and Windows Explorer ARE pretty much the same program - long story, but IE is pretty much embedded into almost everything you open in Windows - your My Documents folder is also tied into IE's architecture!
