Well sure you can run explorer but you should be aware that this dainbread program likes to trash the windows system directory. The reason for this is seems to be related to missing entries in the registry files. There is a fixup program that might repair the damage (it usualy does). I don't care about my windows install. The only time I use it is to test a programs behavior under windows. Anyway debugging this behavior has been a PITA and I personally have made little headway when I have tried to debug it. By the same token it would be nice not to have it do the damage it does.
Apparently you can get this corruption even if you dont run explorer directly since some programs (like msn) will call explorer.exe.
FWIW This is in the README.
