Default Malformed .avi files cause explorer to use 100% of processor time.

Just like in 98, 2000, XP and 2K3 server.
Unfortunately, the previous "solution" of deleting
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.avi\shel lex\PropertyHandler or the
MS hotfix mentioned in this article
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;822430
doesn't work (partially because there "shellex" isn't there anymore)
Deleting the registry keys under .avi and rebooting does not resolve the
issue either.
Issue occurs when the "green bar of progress" in the explorer address bar
begins to cross.

To be accurate, the two instances of explorer.exe fight each other for use
of 100% of system resources (over both processors). The file in question does
have corrupt index information.
Build 5600, 32 bit. 4400+ system, 1 gb ram.
