RaZoR1394:
RPGGamer It's absolutely not the same app but both access the IE core when browsing. Internet explorer is practically a modified Windows explorer window with standard settings to browse the internet and use the IE core.

About Windows explorer. It can be interpreted as two different things...

Windows explorer - The filebrowser
Explorer - The GUI shell

I've tried many of the replacements but here are the one's I consider the best.

Windows explorer - Directory opus
Explorer - Xoblite (Other alternatives are for ex Aston shell, bb4win, bblean,  and so on)

There is another very popular GUI shell replacer but I can't remember it. Check Neowin. They got loads of that info.

Refalm:
A43 comes the closest (to the quality of Konqueror)

muzzy:
Windows Explorer is the graphical shell that's responsible for automatically running programs at startup and providing taskbar and start-menu. Internet Explorer application is just a dummy host application which doesn't do much at all. Both of these can use different toplevel panes, however the views for both are implemented by SHDocVW, so that part is the same for both.

As of such, the browser is pretty much a system component, not an application.

--- Quote from: RPGGamer ---Does anyone know any good Windows Explorer alternatives?

I am using Windows XP Proffesional SP2 if that info is needed.

plenty.

try konqueror or nautilus. i like konqueror's ease of use better, but i think nautilus has a smoother UI.

also, you could try rox filer or dfm for smaller and simpler alternatives or there's a file manager called gentoo which is a nice "commander" style one.
