[H] Illegal Operation emptying Recycle Bin

[Steve Tomporowski]

I've searched for this and found nothing so far.

XP SP3, nothing modified.  When emptying the recycle bin, I get an 
illegal operation and explorer restarts.  Some of the icons in the sys 
tray, most notably Internet Download Manager (IDM) disappear.  It 
happens infrequently and I did not examine the message the last time.

There's stuff on the web about Win95 & 98 for this, but not XP. 

Any ideas?

Thanks....Steve
