Finder Crashing...any advice!
Hullo,
Lately my Finder has been crashing a lot. When I say crash what happens is the menu bar and icons/Finder windows all disappear and then the menu bar and desktop icons reappear a second later as if I had just logged in. The dock is unaffected by this. It happens a lot when I right click on icons to view/select from the contextual menu. I have recently installed a bunch of new software including Final Cut Pro and Photoshop CS2 and I didn't notice it doing this before I installed them. Is there anything I can do to improve stability?
Many thanks.

Did you install Stuffit Deluxe 11.0.2? If so, then it's the contextual menu item that crashes the finder.
