Posted October 27, 200816 yr on My laptop dexplore.exe acts like a malware. Steps to recreate: 1) open Visual Web Developer 2005 [windowsXP home] 2) go to help menu and click “how do I†3) help window opens, but the mouse pointer icon alternates fast between thinking and idle icon 4) open task manager, and I see dexplore.exe takes 70% of CPU time and never ends even after 10 minutes note: This is recreatable. If I open task manager before the step1, then dexplore.exe stops taking CPU time after 2 seconds so, seems to me it should be virus/malware. What should I do about this?
