Do these VB apps do anything to explorer? Toolbars, shell extensions, etc... these may be more likely to influence explorer since they run in it's context...
What might help is to open an explorer window, goto Tools -> Folder Options, View tab and check "Launch folder windows in a seperate process". This helps isolate the issues with explorer extensions, if it crashes it'll only crash that process, not the taskbar etc. Don't know if it's available under Win9x btw... it sure helped me with a few buggy extensions...
