Question about 'Force Explorer to Start With the Folder You Want'

I have a question about Force Explorer to Start With the Folder You Want:

I recently started using this tip on my personal PC. I changed the shortcut to be: c:\windows\explorer.exe /n,/e,/select,C: My system consists of an AMD 1.4Ghz Athlon, 512Mb of Crucial PC2100 DDR RAM, and Win98SE. A strange thing started happening. The shortcut would work great for awhile, but after leaving the PC on for awhile, Explorer would lock up upon opening it. If I rebooted (had to be a RESET button, as the Restart function would just hang at this point), it would start working again for awhile, but after a little time, it would hang again. I took the command line options off and it hasn't locked up since. Windows Explorer was THE ONLY application effected. No other programs lock up on my PC, so I don't think it's a hardware problem. Does anyone have any insight on this unique situation? Thanks in advance!
