You actually don't need all that much corruption. Just one bad object in
the folder could take the desktop down when attempting to option the
folder.

That will probably work, but it's not different than starting from the
command line.

One of the problems with a single corrupted object within a folder is
getting at it to delete it. I'm sure this wll get resolved quickly now
that Larry is involved. There are lots of easy ways to make the Unimaint
install go away if the uninstall trips over itself, but I'm going to let
Larry handle since he's available.
