while it is at 100% I can use flashfxp
when I end explorer, flashfxp goes to 100% and then I can start explorer.exe again.
I have had this exact same problem (flash pegs, then explorer pegs) for the 2 years that I have used flashfxp, on 2 different computers. The problem happens when connected to various sources, at seemingly random times. I have used many versions of flashfxp, and I upgrade everytime hoping and praying that this time the problem will be fixed. Funny, I don't have dual procs, but the only thing that is the same about my 2 PC's is that I use dual displays with an NVIDIA card. The card is a different model now--7800GT vs a FX5200 before. However, I do use the same Adaptec SCSI 29160N card in this machine as I did in the other....but that is it.

In my case, it always seems to happen when flashfxp is not in focus. In fact, if I minimize it, it is pretty much certain to lockup on me.

I have friends that use this app, never have problems, and love it. That is why I bought it, and haven't give up on it yet.

If anyone has any ideas on this, I would love to hear it.
