Thanks for all your help!

Although, I don't know if it's relevant any longer. I noticed that after
Net
Nanny became activated, the problem would occur, and I realized that it
had
only started in the first place after I'd installed Net Nanny.

I have uninstalled it and everything now seems to be working fine.

Still, I'll keep this post for reference. Thanks again.

Other XP users with this issue "claimed" to have run cleaners to exclude.
However, without seeing this for myself, I would suggest running all of

them

And if, per chance it is named Desktop Proxy, check in here (even though
there is no support):

If none of the above applies, run the Startup Tracker listed here and
post
the finding in your reply, minus the extra's.

If this is the wrong group please accept my apologies and redirect me.

Lately I have been experiencing strange problems with Windows (not
Internet)
Explorer and My Computer.

After I reboot or log off and then on again everything works fine, but
eventually I cannot open either of them. Everything else opens, and I

can
get to them through Word and Excel etc, but I can't open them directly.

Can anyone help?
