Under administrative tools in Control Panel.

What skin are you using and how often does this explorer problem happen?  Is there a pattern to it?

StealthOS by Mike Bryant is the Skin I was using Before and then after the update.

When I first got the update it was happening 3 to 4  times every half hour.

So I just turn Windowblinds off till I had time to work with it today.

 

Since my Last Post I Have redownloaded the skin and it has not happened since the download 2 hours ago

I will wait and see maybe the skin became corrupt during the update process or for some other reason and it was

a coincidence that is happen at the same time as the update.
