Plasma-desktop chrashes when right-clicking on any icon on KDE 4.3.5

Plasma-desktop crashes when trying to right-click on any icon or when trying to drug 'n' drop any file(on the desktop) in any folder.-But no trouble when right-click on the bare desktop-in order to the background pic for examble-.

A possible explanation could be a fault on the upgrade packages as I had no trouble few days ago.
Distro info:Mandriva One 2010.0 KDE 4.3.5

2010.1 is close to be released. As 4.3 is quite old anyway, you should upgrade to the latest version. It is not a KDE bug, it worked fine for me during the 4.3.* cycle (I use vanilla KDE from svn) so it most be a Mandriva regression.

Did you uninstall Konqueror?
There was a bug that caused this if you did, not sure which version of KDE though.

It used to work fine for me too so it may have to do with faulty updates-might be a mandriva issue as I found in the net that Im not the only one facing that bug.
Just for curiosity I uninstalled konqueror but it didnt make any difference.
Anyway,the 2010.1 release is closed to be distributed so thank you both for trying to give a solution.
