Windows Explorer crashes when I do anything on my desktop

edit:

Woah woah woah
This was not at all windows' fault. Or a virus. (even though i found a few adwares on my adventure)
It was actually something I downloaded.
It didnt like it so I removed the files, it was a desktop thingy, but something else was trying to execute it.
Every time I clicked the desktop, it wouldn't see the files, and it would freak out.
It just told me, "we cnt find so we disable" and it didnt crash anymore.

How often does it crash?

try running a chkdsk

This actually isn't a bad idea if it crashes only when you try and open or operate on files.

...if i click anything, it crashes.

I've had this before.

Reset your computer.

Reset as in, shut down and log back in?
It happened after I did that because Vegas Movie Studio wouldn't start, it wouldn't even pop up, and its still doing it :<

Restarted PC, It wouldn't start back up, it ran a chkdsk on a blank background somehow, and now I am back on because it did something.
