I recently installed windows 7 on my system, it doesn't work fine. Whenever i run multiple application it hangs and explorer.exe crashes through ntdll.dll which requires a reboot to get explorer back. Any help will be extremely appreciated.

If Windows Explorer keeps crashing, then your computer windows registry can become corrupted and unoptimized. First try this : Go start -> cmd (run as admin) SFC /scannow that checks to see if you have any corrupt system files.

Windows 7 System Restore utility has now merged with the Windows Backup utility. Press F8 when your computer starts > Choose System Recovery option > put you admin password > then do System Restore or Windows complete pc restore.

This sounds more like an operating system problem, these types of things usually aren't the result of a malware infection. Try Windows Live safety scanner, it is an online service that you can use to scan your computer to help protect, clean, and keep it running at its best. ...

What version of Windows 7 did you install?

I hear that the Beta's have a bug in them that causes something similar to your issue.
