For some reason windows explorer and internet explorer only work in one of my user accounts. When I try to explore a folder, the taskbar disappears for a couple of seconds, there is an hourglass symbol during that time, then the taskbar comes back but the explorer window doesn't open.
I made sure rkadmin.dll is not in the system32 folder. I have run Spybot, Ad-Aware, Ewido, Trojan Hunter, CWS Shedder, with no luck. Originally even the user account that works, I would lose use of windows explorer and Internet explorer after 40 minutes or so. I ran sfc /scannow and that seemed to fix the problem with one account. But when I tried to do that logged onto only one of the other accounts (the one that worked was not logged on) it didn't fix the problem.
All of the accounts are administrator accounts. I tried creating a new account, but that had the same problem.
Hope this makes sense. Bottom line I can only access windows explorer, Internet Explorer and file search in one user account.

Thanks.
