I recently upgraded my laptop from dapper to hardy 8.04 xubuntu through CD that downloaded from internet. After one week or so, I tried to create a launcher from "Desktop -> Right Click -> Create Launcher" but it crashes when I about to type anything in the first text box of create launcher window i.e. "Name". Its just exiting. I don't know what's happening. But strangely if I type anything in other text boxes like "Comment" or "Command" its remains there, but crashing when I type any single letter in "Name" textbox. It was working previously. Why this weird behaviour suddenly?

Also, one thing couple of days back after upgrade I created one desktop shortcut manually -

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Azureus
Comment=P2P Client
Exec=/opt/azureus/azureus
Icon=/opt/azureus/Azureus.png
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Application;Network;
After this behaviour started, the short cut lost its icon and when I tried to execute (right click -> Execute) its not executing and opening in edit mode in "MousePad" and I also tried to "Edit Launcher" the same, but its exiting!!
