I spent some time poking around with this problem. Creating empty files named things like "forEd, firEd, forMe, forYou" all created the freeze. So, on the theory that I might have a munged directory, I copied the entire directory elsewhere. In the new copy, I could duplicate the error. Ok, so that made me start looking at various other things inside the directory. I have a file which was named lcareport.sh but which was actually a Perl script (first line #!/usr/bin/perl -w) rather than bash. This particular file also had (in the original directory) an "Important" icon attached to it. In the duplicate directory, no icon was attached. When I attached the "Important" icon, Nautilus froze. So, I renamed the file to just "lcareport." This seems to have corrected the problem. "for..." files can be created at will and the renamed file can have an "important" icon attached, all without causing a freeze. SO, Nautilus seems to have been paying overmuch attention to a .sh file type. Can you duplicate this problem now?
