Finder crashes repeatedly under Snow Leopard
Mac Mini, Intel Core Duo, 1.83ghz, 2gb
With Firefox 3.5 as the only active app, my Finder will crash while dragging files (jpg, pdf, flv) from 1 folder to another. It's not repeatable in any reliable way and doesn't always occur. I'd say 1 time out of 10 - 15 the Finder will crash and restart.
I've repaired permissions, cleaned all caches with Snow Leopard Cache cleaner, deleted Library/Preferences/com.apple.Finder.plist to no avail. Thought it may have been a third-party Quicklook generator left over from Leopard so I deleted the 2 generators which seemed relevant (folder.QLgenerator, flv.QLgenerator), restarted, still crashing.
Other potentially pertinent info... Have the latest version of Perian installed, problem occurs with or without Firefox being active.
I've pasted the crash long from a typical event. If anyone could help me decipher where to look I'd be eternally grateful (or at least really happy...). Thanks in advance for the help.
