I've upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04 and I have two problems:

1. When I copy and paste some files form one nautilus window to another, sometimes nautilus crashes. It doesn't crash when I drag and drop the files.
Important - it happens only when I log in with Hebrew local. It doesn't crash on English local.

2. I can't reach the panel properties on right click on the panel. It seems that some of the options (panel properties, move\delete\add applets) are blocked.

I've upgrade through the update manager.

I am experiencing your first issue, but with the Basque locale. It only happens when I drag and drop (and sometimes when I copy&paste) files from and to directories that were renamed when I switched from English locale to Basque locale. For example, if I drag a file to the desktop. In the English version the desktop contents are stored in a folder called "Desktop" in my home directory. When switching to Basque, the desktop contents are stored in a new folder called "Mahaigaina" (desktop in Basque). It seems that Nautilus (in fact, I think it is gvfs) doesn't recognize this change.

OK, this is a known problem of some localization packages:

It will be solved when the packages are updated in HH.

Someone know when this problem is going to be solved???
Because I'm experience the same problem when i try to copy and paste a folder with files inside.

I'm using Hardy on Spanish locale.

What happened to ubuntu, it was so nice and stable, and now it have a lot of bugs :S specially with nautilus.

I managed to solve the problem using a dirty workaround. I just replaced the defective "nautilus.mo" file in my /usr/share/locale-langpack/eu/LC_MESSAGES folder with the old version used in Ubuntu Gutsy.

In my case (Basque locale), I got the old package here:
http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/language-pack-gnome-eu-base/language-pack-gnome-eu-base_7.10+20080205_all.deb

Then I unzipped it, unzipped "data.ta.bz2", got nautilus.mo file and copied it to /usr/share/locale-langpack/eu/LC_MESSAGES

I hope this will help. But hey, if it doesn't work, don't blame me! :KS
