The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Explorer.exe keeps on reloading around 32% my task bar & icons disappear and come back every 5 seconds & I can not use IE

Asked by RG119 in Windows XP Operating System, HijackThis Software, Internet Explorer Web Browser

Tags: Microsoft, Windows, XP Professional sp 2, Internet Explorer 7

I have a computer running XP Pro sp 2 with IE7.  I can not log onto the internet but i do get an 192 ip address from my dhcp & i can ping the router but can not display the routers web page. system was running very slow and noticed Explorer.exe was running around 95% I end task and new task explorer to find the same. after some research I went into safe mode and ran Vundofix.exe and it found items that I used it to remove then the system would log into my account and after 5 seconds go blank and reload like a fresh log on every 5 seconds so I went back into safe mode and ran "CleanUp40.exe" "ATF Cleaner""Spybot 1.6"  "Malwarebytes.exe""ComboFix.exe" "Advanced windows Care.exe" "Ace Cleaner.exe" and HiJack This. I ran all and allowed them to clean anything they found in safe mode. now I can log in fine but no internet but I can ping the router but page can not be displayed & system is still running very slow but explorer.exe  runs around 11% attached is the Hijack this log after I ran everything listed above.

After a reboot I am having the same problem with the task bar and icons disappearing every 5 seconds Explorer.exe runs up to 49 or higher %
