Explorer unstable-can't access toolbar

Help! I left my machine on overnight, and it automatically updated. I
upgraded to Norton 360 not too long ago. These are the only recent changes
to the machine.

For some reason, over the past two days, explorer (not internet explorer,
the desktop explorer) has become VERY unstable. My taskbar is missing in
action. (I have it set to auto-hide, but it won't come back.)

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi,

Go into the Control Panel/Programs and Features and click the link in the
left column to view installed updates. Try uninstalling the recently
installed ones (one that has been reported as troubling for some is
KB937143).
