[matt]

Every time I start my PC up the following message comes
up:-

Explorer

Explorer has caused an error in
~7082808388.TMP.
Explorer will now close.

If you continue to experience problems,
Try restarting your computer.

Can someone please advise me on what I need to do, I am
cxurrently running "Windows ME" on my system, any help
will be appreciated.

thanks again
