Windows explorer freezes when I try to do something like right click or File->New. I have tried repairing windows using sfc /scannow and the repair console. the computer has all the windows, video, CD updates there are. The only thing in the event viewer when it happens is "The IMAPI CD-Burning COM service was successfully sent a start control", "The IMAPI CD-burning COM has entered the running state" and "The IMAPI CD-burning COM service has enterd the stopped state"

going into services.msc... and disable the service... see what that does.. I would wonder why the service is linked to the right click... I would also sweep for spyware/maleware...

I disabled "WMP Burn Audio CD Launcher" using Shexview.

-I lied. That did not fix it. It is still doing it. I have run malware scans. There is no malware. It is a brand new machine.
