From Feb. '99 PC Magazine:

"If you're running Win98 or running IE4 under Win95, you may notice that sometimes IE can bring your whole system down if it crashes. This may occur because, if you installed the Windows Desktop Update (meaning that IE replaced your Windows shell with itself), then Windows Explorer is running in the same process as IE. If IE goes down, so does your system.

To prevent this occurrence, you need to run IE in a separate process from Windows Explorer. Microsoft warns that this might decrease general performance, but your browser shouldn't crash your system as often, so we think this is a good trade off."
