Bug Description

Binary package hint: system-config-printer

I was trying to browse for a printer attached to a Windows XP computer using System --> Administration --> Printing. I selected New Printer and Windows Printer via SAMBA. After pressing the browse button and expanding the Windows workgroup, I expanded the Windows computer and it crashed after a few seconds.
