    This happened me before with my 30gig movies folder.

    Everytime I clicked on it, it just froze - even though If I browsed the folder through Media Player, it worked fine, and everything played as normal.

    One simple solution is to copy all the folders to a different location, delete the originals, then copy the new ones back.

    Not to hijack the thread but on the subject of folders freezing, everytime I open a folder with a divx/xvid file in it Explorer crashes. Anybody got any idea why this happens?
