I installed mozilla 1.4a last week on windows 2000 professional and after a reboot suddenly iexplore.exe crashes whenever i try to open it , and, even worse, whenever i try to open a window that uses explorer.exe (any directory window,control panel, anything...) it too crashes, the taskbar disappears and re-appears after about 10 seconds.
