Every time I open a certain folder on my computer it "crashes". What is the problem?

This means that folder or folders in your C drive are infected with an virus. And viruses are also hidden in your music files on you C Drive.

Well you might want to try removing spyware and hopefully you have antivirus. Sounds like windows explorer is corrupted. If your computer isnt too old you might just have to reinstall windows. But first check for the other stuff if you havent already. I assume you get windows errors after it crashes.

There's a lot of possibilities, but make sure your computer is virus- and spyware-free first. If the problem still exists, verify if you have a network drive that mapped to a server that no longer exist, disconnect it if you happen to have that. If you still have problems, reload your machine from scratch :-)

Maybe your computer is really old and slow. If that's the case, I suggest you get a new computer.

Your Explorer is damaged, this is like a shell for Windows.

Might be a virus. If it has a dodgy name you should find out more about it.
