I had one today, the first I can remember (or should I say the first one
I have not yet forgotten about).
I was using the nightly build 3230 and it occurred just after a merge -
commit cycle.

A small repository < 20 files at rev 200 in a 3 deep nested directory
structure so no great workload for the cache.
There are about 30 other remote repositories and local WCs mirroring
them , some with > 4000 files and multiple folders.

I might have been a bit hasty after the commit in hitting F5 to refresh
the icon status or trying to navigate around the target WC, it just had
that feel about it.
I also had Delphi7 running and some of the merged from files open in the
IDE but I'm fairly certain there were no Merged to files open in the IDE.

It was a full on explorer crash. Clicking on My Computer on the desktop
would bring up a new frozen explorer.
Reboot and updated to rev 3241 for good measure.
