|  shmedia.dll and windows explorer closes!!! Hi I have Windows XP Pro SP3. I have a folder full of large *.avi's. Everytime i mouse over one of the avi's Windows Explorer closes and restarts. I checked Event Viewer and it appears that shmedia.dll is causing this. Is there a fix? I have tried removing Divx to no avail and i have tried updating DivX to no avail. It also does not matter whether or not i have thumbnails on or not. This occurs in safe mode too... This been going on since the beginning of Oct 2008! Please help NBK
