I'm using the sftp protocol. When you connect to a server using the
'connect to server' or nautilus (ctrl-l and put
sftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]), it adds a "link" in the side pane of nautilus,
right below the "Network Servers". But as nocrack commented, it could be
possible that some other protocols are affected as well. Anyway, back to
my sftp problem :)

Now, scratch that last comment, it's not when I unmount through side pane. This 
happens only when I add it with 'connect to server'.
If I hit ctrl-L and enter sftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/home/user/ everything is 
normal, I can also unmount it normally.
I rebooted the machine, I removed and re-added once more through 'connect to 
server'.
When I hit connect, it pops up a new nautilus window, trying to browse the 
sftp. That's when the problems appear, and I end up with an unresponsive 
window, probably when it's trying to retrieve the folder's contents. Sometimes 
the unresponsive window can be closed (although the mouse pointer is 
"waiting"), or I have to use the "force quit" option it gives me for nautilus.

That very first new window that is automatically opened after hitting the 
connect button seems to mess up the whole connection.
I'm saying this because I killed the two processes related to this and 
connected through the sftp bookmark, which was created previously (using 
'connect to server'). I used the menu Places >  Bookmarks > user (the name of 
the bookmark), it opened a new window and I could browse my server with no 
problems.

I hope I am clear as to where the problem resides. It's a really weird
situation. And I think nautilus affects this bug as well.

I also think nautilus (or something) "caches" or stores the retrieved
list of contents of the server folder. Use a new username or server to
test this, because when I re-added the 'connect to server', the new
window and the connection were ok if I visited already browsed folders
from previous connections, but when I went to a folder or a username
that I haven't visited or used before, the window or the connection do
not respond and the list of contents of the folder is not shown.
