Public bug reported:

After an upgrade to Hardy Heron - fresh, clean install - Nautilus hangs,
freezes and

CPU usage rise to 100% and
RAM to 88% at first (+50% swap use)
and slowly eats more and more RAM - and after 10-15 minutes (I haven't tried to 
let it hang any longer than that) almost all RAM is gone (1.256GB + 512MB swap)

....when opening, via: Places / Name_of_disk an USB ext. HDD.

on a: 2.6.24-16-generic #1 SMP / Toshiba Satellite Pro A120

/dev/sdb1    367G  336G   13G  97%   /media/disk_name

/dev/sdb1 on /media/disk_name type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal)

nautilus 

All updates installed - incl. "Pre-released updates (hardy-proposed)"

It happens every time I try to view the HDD via Nautilus and

 ~/.xsession-errors outputs:

Initializing nautilus-image-converter extension
Initializing nautilus-share extension
seahorse nautilus module initialized
** (nautilus:7836): WARNING **: Unable to add monitor: Not supported
Nautilus-Share-Message: Called "net usershare info" but it failed: 'net 
usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory

==========

The HDD is 400GB and opens fine on a Gutsy system - in the past on the
machine where it now freezes as well as on a Gutsy installation on
another machine.

The disk is also accessible via music players (I am listening to music
as I type right now - CPU usage 100% and Nautilus is frozen) and from a
terminal. The disk works fine, it seems.

When trying to close Nautilus the "Force quit" option appears and when
clicked Nautilus disappears and restarts on location: /home/me

Other USB disks (with less storage space open fine).

I removed the "nautilus-share extension", but that made no difference
apart from different output from .xsession:

Initializing nautilus-image-converter extension
seahorse nautilus module initialized

** (nautilus:8360): WARNING **: Unable to add monitor: Not supported
Initializing nautilus-image-converter extension
seahorse nautilus module initialized

** (nautilus:8453): WARNING **: Unable to add monitor: Not supported

===

Then I removed all other additional Nautilus plugins installed and tried
a few times more: that gives this output:

Initializing nautilus-image-converter extension
Initializing nautilus-share extension
seahorse nautilus module initialized

** (nautilus:8219): WARNING **: Unable to add monitor: Not supported

the output of /var/log/messages when plugging in the disk is:
