I've noticed today that Dolphin refused to open a window for folders when I double clicked on the desktop icons. It just sat there, and sure enough both Firefox and Thunderbird were both frozen dead. As soon as I killed FF and TB, another double click on the folder icons responded instantly.

Might there be a lock (or lock process) involved that hangs and affects more than just FF and TB?

That said, I've seen Firefox and Thunderbird hang independently of the other (one was fine while the other was hung), but I find the observed behavior worth mentioning.
