There is actually a way to uncorrupt your triggers.plist file. Instead
of deleting the file, double-click on it (make sure Quicksilver isn't
running). It should open in a program called Property List Editor. If
not, try to find this program. Once it opens, click on the arrow next
to the word "triggers" to expand the list. You should see a list of
items (creatively named Item 1, Item 2, Item 3, etc.) that you should
expand by clicking on the arrows. Under each item are some variable
names, such as "ID", "command", "enabled", "name", "type", and some
other names. Look for an item without a "command" variable. This is
the corrupt item that Quicksilver will spend forever trying to load.
Once you delete this item, Quicksilver should run perfectly.
