Hi. I can't start kontact and kopete anymore. My RAM consuption grows to 100% (and swap follows) but the softs do not start.
If i try to launch kmail alone (not in kontact), it's ok ... for 2 seconds. After that, the window turns grey and all the RAM gets filled (2GB in less than a minute). The only solution is to kill the process.

All this arrived after a compiz crash, i don't understand the link between the crash & these problems. When i try to start these softs from a terminal, i have no error message until il must kill the processes (i have wait for 10 minutes).

Thank you for your help.

EDIT : Solved. Shame on me i did not search on ALL the forum : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=783375
std.vcf was about 262 MB here... Erasing all the corrupted letters solved the problem.
