Do you launch multiple apps on login? Are they Carbon? Is iTunesHelper one of them?
nope, the only apps that launch on login are ituneshelper, kensington mouseworks, and a script that changes my desktop pic. The app in question that this happened to (at first) is Internet Explorer. So maybe it is only MS products, like Matt said. It bounced forever, as did any other apps I tried to launch afterwards. As a matter of fact, I didn't give any thought to it being caused by Fire, until I was reminded of it here.
Of course, there is the possibility that this is just a system bug, and it just happened to occur to both of us after launching Fire. (Um... I like to be optimistic ;))

Just for reference, I've had this happen to me too in .29a. Applications bounce forever, but never launch, and can't be force quit.
I can remember two instances of this, can they both happened shortly after launching fire.

Yes - please try to do it again.
So far there have been no significant changes between a and b that would cause this kind of havok ...

I don�t know whats going on, but I just wanted to tell you my problem with
.29b, I had been running .29a without any noticeable problems, but when I
was running .29b my computer started to do crazy things when I tried to run
fire while doing other things. especially with my microsoft office programs.
the office v.x programs would keep on bouncing but never load, and
effectively freeze my computer by not even allowing me force quit fire, or
any of the other programs. at first I was afraid that apple ha
d absolutely
failed at their fabled osx stability, until I stopped running fire. in which
case everything returned to the nirvana that is Mac. Im no where near a
programmer, so I cant tell you anything specific, I can just tell you the
symptoms I saw. I love fire, and I would love to keep on using it, but right
now I cant. please email me if you have any questions. I havent deleted
fire, so I could try to recreate my problems for you. I hope this
information helps.
