How about "XP makes it harder"?
I've gotten the weirdest error on my XP Pro. Launching anything using "explorer.exe" makes the cursor change into the hourglass and just about nothing more. This includes emptying the trashcan, launching the Windows Explorer pressing delete/Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V with a file highlighted and stuff like that. Killing explorer.exe in the taskmanager and launching a new one clears this up until I do something again. Using "My Computer" works fine and I can navigate through the directory tree and all (just don't touch delete or those buttons). I can drag stuff to the trashcan though. This whole thing started when I uninstalled some Office97 and Office 2k programs and installed Office XP instead. On the next reboot everything was smashed up... – Can you say Microsloth?
