I have 2 systems with the same symptoms 1 XP 1 98. both boot, display desktop and desktop icons and sort of hang there. this happens in safe mode as well.
the mouse moves but clicking icons or desktop does nothing, moving the mouse to the taskbar or start button shows an hourglass. CTRL-ALT-DEL will bring up the task manager but both show explorer.exe as not responding ending this task crashes the 98 pc.
booting the 98 pc to a dos prompt and checking the system.ini revealed
shell = explorer.exe ibm00003.exe
renamed ibm00003.exe and ibm00003.dll & ibm00004.dll
and some other sus files (xyfbirwm.exe I think)
but it still gets me no further.
have been around pc's and used aaw & spybot and hijackthis for years but this one has me stumped.
cant get to a point to be able to use hijackthis

I have identical problem with Windows XP. Boot goes up to the Icons and freezes from there on. I was able to Restore to a previous date but when I turn the computer off it will do the same again
Here is HTJ log if anybody could help me.
Thanks
John
