UPDATE: I downloaded and installed the Combined Community Codec Pack
from http://www.cccp-project.net/ and everything appears to be working
fine. I can open folders with certain .avi files and view other .avi
files as thumbnail without getting a runtime error.

I still don't know how or why this problem started, but I sure am glad
to have found a suitable workaround.
