I have been troubled by shitty billy's error windows explorer error for the past 5 months, i use lots of video editing software's, so initially i need lots of codec's. I have installed K-Lite megacodec pack and due to antivirus pro i had to remove my anti virus n number of times but reinstalled the same antivirus. Since then this problem started, when ever i click on "Start-Turn of computer" a message pop-up saying windows explorer has generated error and needs to close, even when i right click on my desktop this message appears, i removed all the codec's but to no use, i repaired my computer using my original windows XP cd and even used this command in windows mode"sfc.exe /scannow" to restore all my original files but the problem hasn't gone, i feel to kill my computer but think i will be the first looser so control myself. Isn't there any solution for windows explorer error, like registry editing or any tool remove this problem.

I don't think your problem is codec related.
Usually a 3rd party software can cause such problems
and as you wrote thiw problem occur even when you
try to right click on desktop.
That means a Shell extention (a program that is on a right click list)
can cause this problem
To troubleshoot this, download ShellExView from here:
http://www.snapfiles.com/get/shellexview.html
run it, and you can see on a list what items you have when your right click with your mouse, (Context menu Items)
Disable all non Microsoft items from the list,
reboot and see if the problem presist.
Another reason is that a malware on your computer cause this.
