Hello boonting,

Afaik. explorer.exe is not only a file, is a core-process for
windows200/xp and maybe others too, but it can be read easily.
Some antivirus go mad even if some program (like desktop-modification
software) change some value, those are false-positives.
To read explorer.exe try to open it with resHacker (search it on the
web, or email me for a copy) and see what could be wrong, if you find
some entry you dont like (like reference to some hozt.exe or hozt.dll)
so you can delete it, save as a copy, switch to safe mode and replace
the original with the (cleaned) copy, since you cannot change it in
normal mode.
Alternatively you could unpack it from the CD and replace it, but i
dont remmeber the exact syntax for unpack certain packets from the
cd-cab files, maybe someone else here will.
