Control Panel Problem!

Whenever I try to open my Control Panel on my computer, I get an error message stating that "Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close...", forcing me to restart. This error occurs every time I try to load up the Control Panel. Is there a way to resolve this problem?

Kazza or Grokster has nothing to do with this. You mostlikely have a corrupted dll file. My best advice to sitautions like this it to reformat

. Sorry. Wait to see if anyone else posts!
