I also have more frequent editor crashes although they are not just  
associated with Find, sometimes Find just quits finding, and  
sometimes in the editor the cursor will not appear although I can  
drag through/select things and I can type at a clicked location. I  
have to restart FB to fix. These bugs have existed for the past year  
or so. I use two monitors (extended desktop) and have wondered if the  
problem is associated with this arrangement but cannot otherwise  
isolate a common denominator. Running a PowerMac G4 1.2.
