Do command prompt and Copy&Paste dir /a /s %systemdrive%\explorer.exe ENTER
Then, navigate to them and RightClick them and rename them.
Then, Delete all instances of Phillies.exe
dir /a /s %systemdrive%\Phillies.exe to find them all...
Then, I'd like to see another Look.bat Log to compare to the others to see what I'm missing.

I think I may have found the source of my problem, when I tried to start the computer with my last most recent settings that worked, it takes me to the desktop with explorer.exe missing. However, when I choose to run Windows XP, it gives me blue screen of death. Same with when I try to run safe mode.

I was hoping to get a stable shell running before we do that.
At reboot, select Recovery Console.
At the command prompt, type: fixmbr ENTER
When done, type exit at the command prompt to restart your machine.

Are you sure you don't want to try to sort out the explorer.exe issue?
I know there are many preferable shells (Aston comes to mind as being the best IMO), but it might be nice to try to get to the bottom of the problem.
Whatever you decide is cool with me

What happens first?
I do not know what it is that I am missing. Perhaps a little confusion in the whole process - my "automating" it probably made it more difficult.....
The fact that Litestep works is encouraging - It is likely something simple.
Also, if you prefer to keep Litestep, I believe it is possible to keep it and run it along with explorer.
