Eclipse error log

Eclipse is shutting down in the middle of a work session.  This has occurred multiple times now.

The latest error log is attached.

Does it happen consistently for you or sporadically?  Are there any steps that make it happen?  The crash is happening when showing a Browser in a pop-up shell (eg.- showing the javadoc for a hovered item), but there must be something unique about your case, otherwise this would have been previously reported by others.

Also, can you run regedit and verify that the value of HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Shell.Explorer\CLSID is {8856F961-340A-11D0-A96B-00C04FD705A2}

Timed out, closing.  If this still happens with a recent eclipse release like http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.6RC2-201005201744/index.php and you have more feedback that could help with reproducing the problem then please reopen this report, thanks.
