Default Problems after installing windows xp sp2

I installed Windows XP SP2 recently ( had windows xp proffessional sp1
earlier and my laptop was working awesome ) But after installing Windows XP
sp2, my laptop became quite unstable ( its configuration is 512 mb ram, 40 gb
hd, 2.4 ghz ). Every time I close some folder ( any folder like My Documents
or My Programs ), I receive an Internet Explorer error like "Internet
Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to be closed. We are sorry for
the inconvenience." This error also shows up, even if u just open any folder
and close it without doing anything much. It also says "Please tell Microsoft
about this problem" which I did many times but ultimately gave up.
My second problem is that, everytime i right click on any tray icon on the
System Tray, it gives me the tools u get when u right click on the taskbar
itself and not the tools for that program on which u right clicked. Its
annoying. My laptop is also running quite slower than its usual speed earlier
( even if i have done spyware scanning, virus scanning, adware scanning,
disk defragmentation, disk clean up ).
I was realy happy with Microsoft Windows Xp sp1 and now I cant switch back
to sp1 by system restore, coz i downloaded many softwares and files after
installing windows sp2, and i dont want to lose those softwares by restoring
to an earlier restoration point...
Its realy depressing and any help regarding those problems will be very
much appriciated. Atleast with so much problems with sp2, I wont be
suggesting any of my friends the windows xp proffessional sp2, unless
Microsoft helps me and solves my problems.
Thanks.
