Not sure if was AV or not this time. As I was moving my mouse back and forth over TLB menus, causing them to popup--trying to cause an error to occur faster than normal--my explorer start bar & TLB just disappeared. This looked exactly like the problem I've been having all along.
But when I went to TaskMgr to start new instance of explorer, I noticed old instance was still there in the processes tab this time. Just invisible. I had to kill the old instance, then run new explorer in order to get my start bar and TLB back. I don't recall having to kill the old explorer instance in the past, I'm pretty sure it was already gone.
I wish I could send more info, but I don't see any dump files, nothing in the event logs, and clearly this is only happening when I do something to cause a new TLB menu to popup.
