AVI Files Crash Explorer

When I use Windows Explorer to view AVI and DivX files, after about 5 seconds it
crashes and has to restart. No error code is given. This happens every single time,
even when viewing AVI and DivX files that are in the recycle bin.
I was told that the problem occurs when Windows Explorer tries to show a thumbnail
preview of video files, and in order to solve the problem I should open the Run dialog
(Windows key + r) and type in:
regsvr32 /u shmedia.dll
Apparently this will disable Windows Explorer from showing thumbnail views of your
video files...but when I use that command it tells me that the module shmedia.dll
failed to load and could not be found.
I have a genuine copy of Vista Home.
