That's a ``feature'': Explorer is the parent of all the desktop display. Kinda like the login shell on Unix: if you kill it, there goes your whole session. Except that on Windows, the OS pays attention and restarts Explorer right away to get you back in business. (In first versions of Windows, there was no restarting of Explorer, so if you killed it, you needed to reboot :-()
