Our application requires that the system have an aero theme set, so we have code that sets the theme via the "Personalization" control panel before our application starts.
We're run into a sporadic issue where explorer will crash in themeui.dll. The Application Event Log shows the following information:
E 18-May-14 15:37:141000Application E... Faulting application name: Explorer.EXE, version: 6.1.7601.17514, time stamp: 0x4ce7a144 Faulting module name: themeui.dll, version: 6.1.7601.17514, time stamp: 0x4ce7c9cf Exception

Are there any known issues or reasons that would cause explorer to crash in this fashion?
