Application: kontact (4.4.8)
KDE Platform Version: 4.4.5 (KDE 4.4.5)

Operating System: Linux 2.6.32-30-generic-pae i686
Distribution: Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS

-- Information about the crash:
If I am able to complete the save of attachement or get my file attached in under 30 seconds or so then It works but If I have to browse the filesystem at all before I can get to where I am saving the file to or getting the file from if attaching it to a email then kontact will crash EVERY time.

Very Annoying and with literally hundreds of mail folders its a race I usually lose. Being an IT guy this hurts more than I can even begin to explain.

The crash can be reproduced every time.
