Bug Description

I am using Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon , 7.10, Gnome 2.19.3, Nautilus 2.19.2.

I figure out that sometimes nautilus crashes. But i didnt know why it was. But tonight i reproduce it and i know how.
Just right click and look at properties of a partition icon on the Desktop. (ie try to put an emleb) Then watch how nautilus crashes and consume all the cpu.

I can confirm this in Gutsy. To reproduce the freeze:

1) Open Nautilus and go to computer:///
2) Right click any of the icons except Filesystem and choose "properties"
3) Close the properties window

After that, nautilus freezes using 100% cpu.
This is also reproducible using the icons in the desktop, if they are present.

The backtrace is similar to tp://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406462 upstream which is a GTK bug

Nautilus 2.19.5-0ubuntu1 made this even worse for me.
Freezing now happens on opening the dialog, rather than on closing it.
