Ok so I am on my computer and I try to click on my computer. A banner shows up that says "To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program. Below it reads "Name : Windows Explorer

then publisher microsoft corporation. Then my option is to close message. This is the same thing that happens if I try to open control panel, recycle bin or my documents. I am very worried :} But hopefully i figure out a solution.

Thanks ~ Rex

This sounsd like Windows Data Execution Prevention.

A similar thing happend to my PC, the way I worked round it was to change the way DEP was handled.

Do this by Right clicking my computer > Properties > Advanced tab > Click settings under the performanc option > Then click the Data Execution Prevention tab.

Now depending how it is set, you want to swtch to the alternative method. So if the first box is selected, change it to the second box and visa versa.

You then will be abel to add certain apss to the allow box if you selected it to let you choose the progams.

Hopefully this will work for you, it did for me, I don;t know why mine did it, maybe someone else knows.

Hopefully it will let you right click my computer ;)

Hope it helps.
