Explorer.exe stops responding when you
use certain shell extensions
If you have a Windows Explorer shell extension that is developed by the
Microsoft Foundation Class library (MFC) and hosted in Windows Explorer,
you may find that the Explorer.exe process stops responding (hangs) when
you open Windows Explorer. This applies to both Vista and Windows 7. Luckily,
there is a hotfix for the issue. Find out more here:

Vince - you wrote an Explorer extension a while back that
did a "4NT Prompt Here" kind of operation. I thought you
might be interested in this article.
