It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be to replace the SHDOCVW.DLL file,
however I finally was able to do this from the command prompt. I'm sorry to
say that didn't fix it. I tried to do a system restore but it failed "unable
to restore your computer..."

Possibly and if Mart and Mike's suggestions did not solve your situation,
here you can download the dll-file for free:

But don't venture into scanning or fixing anything, as being offered.
That might bring you more trouble instead.
Best of luck,
