You probably have one same application on both PC's that stops explorer shutting down tidy or something

could be antivirus not closing fully so its hanging explorer, could be IE, or messenger, there are quite a few processes which can cause explorer to hang
when you click end task, does it come up with a box sayin explorer.exe has caused an error & must be closed, with a button to show you detailed information? if so click it & make a copy of what it said
