Bug 298391

Application: kwin (4.8.2 (4.8.2))
KDE Platform Version: 4.8.2 (4.8.2)
Qt Version: 4.8.1
Operating System: Linux 3.0.0-17-generic-pae i686
Distribution: Ubuntu 11.10

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:

- Unusual behavior I noticed:

When opening an external link from Thunderbird or Akregator or many other application just everithing crashes and the session is ended. New login screen appears and plasma desktop restarts a new blank session.
It happened once also on clicking the "show desktop" widget I have in the task bar.

The crash can be reproduced some of the time.
