Some Dreamweaver 8 users running on Windows Vista are reporting that Dreamweaver crashes while performing actions that involve browsing for files. Some examples include:

• Using File > Open to browse the hard drive to open a file.
• Inserting an image and using the file browser to select the image.
• Creating a hyperlink and using the file browser to select the target file.
• Creating a site definition and using the file browser to select the local root folder or remote folder.

Different users are seeing different behavior:

• Some users report the crashes happen every time, while others report the crashes are random and sporadic.
• Some users report the crashes happen right when a file browsing dialog appears, while others report the crashes only occur when browsing two or more folders away.
• Some users report the crashes only occur after inserting four images.
• Some users report the crashes only occur if you leave the file browsing dialog box open for a little while.
