I've just found an interesting way to crash your ST, guaranteed.
Boot up with the control panel installed, and after you get the
desktop, open a disk window.  Then open the Control Panel and
re-select the disk window over it.  If you now try to select
anything on the control panel via the right-button deal the system
will come to a screeching halt.
    This sounds like a bug to me.
