Is Explorer Open?

How do you find out if explorer is open using API's?

I've tried using GetObject but I want to avoid using this because I'd need to install an ActiveX on the machine I'm installing to, which I don't want to do.

Thanks in advance

Windows Explorer or Internet Explorer ?

Well, doesn't matter. :)

VB Code:

'Add a [b]REFERENCE[/b] to Microsoft Internet Control, [b]NOT[/b]
'Add components
Dim Sws As New ShDocVW.ShellWindows
If Sws.Count Then MsgBox "An explorer window is running."
