Windows 7 Explorer Frequently Crashes - Error 0xc0000374

Our site contact, tried this but found no evidence of a rootkit. Thanks anyway. We will attempt to remove any codec packs and anything that invokes the shell extensions and see if that makes a difference. BTW the same problem happens with MMC snap ins as well

Its looks like that 0xc0000005 error with explorer.exe may mean you have a rootkit

Download then run tdsskiller. If it picks anything up, select cure wait for it to finish then reboot

Thanks for the prompt reply! Appreciated, will try this out ASAP.

I'm pretty sure I know what the problem is but unfortunately I don't have a solution. I have exactly the same problem as you and I think it is being caused by your wireless N d-link adaptor. I know it's not really solution but try running your computer without the card and see if it stops it from crashing. You might also find that the computer crashes more often when you are using high bandwidth, i.e. when downloading torrents or whatever...

If anyone does come up with a solution for this could you please let me know as well because this is a pain in the ____..

Cheers,

Maverick

Makes sense that if it has something to do with the wireless card, since, the last time it crashed I was downloading files from my website http://www.thebrazilianlanguage.com, which usuallly are pretty big files. But is the wireless card just a provocation or would replacing it end the crashes?
