"Windows explorer encountered a problem and needs to close"

Is there a way to get rid of it without fresh install?.
Script debugging was disabled, there seems to be no virus
The program is Windooze XP sp3.
Will update to pdm.dll help,(dunnow where to get it)

Thanks for input

It opens only when pressing on files with film (avi,mpg, wmv, Youtube
d-loaded clips, )
otherwise it is ok.
There are only three progs in the background, Avira anti-virus,
spyware terminator
and multilingual keyboard (ctfmon.exe) with which there was no
problem in the past.
Also installed pdm.dll , it did not help .

Thanks Tech Guru

Just scanned with hijackit, and deleted Quicktime , b'cause there were
corrupted files
in that prog. Now the comp works like a charm
.
Thanks Tech Guru, your suggestion to remove unnecessary codecs and
viewers
was the correct one. Appreciated
