I really need some help. I need to open a program up but I can't because when explorer crashed the task bar also disappeared and reappeared and the only Icon left is the volume control. Can I somehow get the program back without closing it with Ctrl+Alt +Del? I tried doubleclicking on the icon again but that just opens up an other window not the one that I need. I"m running windows 98.

dude, when explorer crashes, you dont have much of a choice other than rebooting..

Damn it. Well, thanks for the reply.

Bgnome-

That usually only applies to 9x, but even it can sustain a few, if you know how to restart it..

In windows 98 even if one of iexplorer windows is stuck and you try to close it using ctl+alt+del it closes all other open iexplorer windows as well.I think Windows Me is slightly better coz it mostly closes only the window thats stuck(thats why I use it).

prafull, I think they're talking about explorer, not Internet Explorer. It really sucks when it crashes. Nothing else works and the only choice is to reboot all over again.

Sorry Zephon, I wrote that coz it was the biggest crashing problem I faced in Win 98.As far as Crashing of Explorer goes good old Bgnome's reply was just perfect.
