Windows Explorer Error in My Computer / Explorer

I have Windows XP (SP1). Now whenever I try to copy/paste, right click, or use the File menu in My Computer or Windows Explorer I receive a Windows Explorer Error.

"Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." AppNAme: explorer.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.2180 ModName: shellext.dll ModVer: 1.0.0.1 Offset:00001e31.

I must be "inside" one of my drives for the error to pop up. If I just double click My Computer, I can use the file menu and right click. I tried installing Service Pack 2 hoping it would fix the problem, but it has not.

Any help would be great!!
 
Yes, the computer is virus free and spyware clean. I've ran adaware, spybot, TrendMicro sysclean, AVG antivirus scan and Norton Antivirus corp ed. (which I don't think was working which is why I used the other two).
