In Windows Explorer I can no longer access the properties feature. I choose it (for a file or folder) but nothing happens. Can anybody help.

I dont no if it is related, but I have this error message: "mqsvc.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being generated".

It looks like your IE explorer has been corrupted if you go to start-settings-control panel-add remove programs- select ie explorer( MS explorer) and click on add/remove it will give you the option of repairing or reinstalling the program I would try the repair first, If you have anyvirus programs working disable them first. It will repair the program and then reboot.
Good Luck

Go to System Information if you are using 98, it has an Internet repair tool under "Tools"...I've used it on several boxes with pretty good success.

I noticed you said Windows Explorer and not IE. If you are running Win2k, this is a known problem for explorer to cause protection faults and M$ have supposedly fixed the problem in the latest Service Pack (3).
