I think the chance of this being caused by virus or spyware is very slim,
because I am so conscious about what I am doing and in keeping my machine
clean and in top condition by checking for virus and spyware. Before I go to
the rigmarole of checking and trying based on suspected malware activity, I
believe I am suffering something where SP2 doesn't like to cooperate with
Win Explorer. So, I live with the problem until either MS solves it, or
someone has figured out what really happens. Thanks for your advise,
however.
