Somehow I end up in Media Center when I clicked on Windows XP Newsgroups so
I'm reposting this here.

First, I'm sorry but this is a Windows 98SE problem not XP but it looks like
there's no support for the 98 OS on this site so I'm hoping someone here can
help.

I have an older PC with Windows 98SE. I was doing some cleanup and deleted
all cookies, temporary files and history through Internet Explorer then for
some reason Internet Explorer froze-up and I had to reboot the computer.
After the system initializes and runs the autoexec I get an error that
Explorer.exe has a page fault error and it doesn't go any further.
Apparently explorer.exe was corrupted (or something else?). I don't suspect a
virus.

I can not find my 98SE OS cd, I think I may have left it where I used to
work. Does anyone know where I can find a copy of the explorer.exe file for
Windows 98SE? I do still have Windows 95 OS on cd but I'm not sure if its'
explorer.exe file would work for 98SE, anyone know? Thanks.

Open a Run command and type in:
iexplore /rereg click [OK] and it will re-register all dlls for the IE,
please Reboot your machine and see if the issue still exist!

- Click Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Information
- Click Tools (tool bar) -> Internet Explorer Repair Tool

You cannrestore your system to an earlier stage when things were working
okay by running this command from command prompt on start up:
scanreg /restore a and select a date before the deletion happened.
