Error Message on Explorer.exe

When I try to only open one of my movie files
the entire explorer tree crashes

The error message is always that explorer encountered a problem and must
close.
When I click to find the problem I get the following message
Then when I click OK, the entire explorer tree crashes.

I go back to "my computer", click this file, and the same thing happens
Does anyone out there know how I can fix this problem ?

C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\186c_appcompat.txt
ModName:xvid.dll
Location in C:\WINDOWS\system32

If you know how to do this please email me at

It is a common problem with some XVid encoded videos. When you click on
it in Explorer, it tries to open the file and grab some information.

Try downloading a newer XVid Codec, or a Codec bundle. This could fix
the issue.
