Uncheck the option "Force shell icon refresh" in the settings dialog
main page. As the tooltip clearly states, this can block the explorer if
your computer is part of a windows domain or any other network.
Depending on how this network (and your settings) are set up, that icon
refresh makes the explorer refresh _all_ icons, even those on the
network shares and maybe other computers. Since this can take several
minutes, the explorer is blocked until then.
