I have been having, on and off, an annoying problem of a system freeze when
opening a folder. What I get is a sort of frozen dotted shadow outline of
the folder perimeter as it is in the process of opening.

I am using 8.5.1 on a G3 with 128 ram.

I doesn't seem to matter what the folder is/contains and it happens
sporadically.

I have done an extention reinstall from base 8.5 but have not tracked down
any culprit. Anyone come across this before?

I have done  a rebuild of the desktop and even Norton utilities reported no
fault.
