    Can you give me more information on how to reproduce this?

    If this is no help I could try a debug build.

    You said in step 3: right-click on the taskbar.
    do you really click on the taskbar? Or on the Stexbar in explorer? Because a simple
    right-click on the taskbar shouldn't even trigger anything in StExBar.

    version there).

    It seems to be really random things that set it off, like using the 'aero peek'
    button at the RHS of the taskbar or the steps above. I did notice that the bar shows
    up in the list of toolbars you can add to the taskbar (I'm not sure it did before) -
    as well as the context menu for desktop icons.

    When I get back I'll grab the callstack addresses from the dump, and if I can I'll
    build a debug version and grab a proper callstack.

    Cheers,

    Ian

    Do you maybe have another step-by-step recipe on how to trigger the crash?

    Just wanted to chime in here. I'm on Windows 7 64bit and I see the exact same
    Explorer crashes. StExBar 1.7.2.

    Haven't tried the modified version yet but I will. Can't seem to reproduce it
    consistently either...

    more info when I can.

    Just a recent thought also, I have two other shell extensions at work, dropbox (same
    as at home) and the Xbox 360 neighborhood plugin (I'm a game dev). Its possible that
    either of these extensions has some kind of conflict with StExBar.

    Cheers,

    Again, sorry for the really really long lead time on me testing this and getting you
    more info...
