I'm receiving the error message "explorer has caused an
error in crtdll.dll" on each and every startup. How can I
resolve this?

It's possible you have spyware/adware on your system have a look at this

I would urge you to check your system for commercial parasites, spyware
and
other assorted adware. This might be a good time to download yourself a
copy
of the free Ad-Aware 6.0 from Lavasoft
(http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/) and also SpyBot
(http://www.safer-networking.org/) and scan your system for and remove all
unwanted parasites, adware and spyware that might be hiding on your PC.

Just is case the problem is due to a version of the CoolWebSearch parasite
you
might want to download and run merijn's CWShredder which targets that
specific
parasite. CWShredder can be downloaded from
(http://www.zerosrealm.com/downloads/CWShredder.zip or
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip). Details of the
many
forms of the CoolWebSearch hijacker can be found at
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/cwschronicles.html and also
