Windows Vista: 7M2 hang on class import

I couldn't find a reference to this searching the forums or the knowledge base, so I'll post it here for now. I have a reproduceable hang in IDEA 7M2 when importing a class (after typing class name, IDEA suggesting import of the appropriate class, and hitting Alt-Enter) - but only in Windows Vista (Home Premium). I don't see that in 7M2 (or 6) on Windows XP (Home SP2), nor in IDEA 6 on Vista.

Just something to be aware of (unless it's an artefact of some specific weirdness on my machine).

(... wish I didn't have to use Windows for work.... tempted to install Ubuntu instead and run WINE or similar for those apps that need Win...)+

Hello Matt,

Please take a thread dump at the moment of the hang.

Apologies - I was getting this consistently during a multi-day Windows session, but after a restart it appears not to be reproducible after all. Chalk it up to the Vista gremlins, I guess...

Hmm - now the hang is happening again. I've taken a thread dump (attached) with StackTrace - hope it's useful.
