{75DFF2B7-6936-4C06-A8BB-676A7B00B24B} CLSID_SeparateMultipleProcessExplorerHost

This just starts a separated Explorer.exe, so if one crashes the other stays alive. :-)

Just to add more in Tom's answer. When using IDM, when you press open folder button on Internet Download Manager's download complete dialog box, it will open a new explorer instance with similar command.

You might be doing the same.
