It sounds like theres some sort of deadlock.  Here's what I'd
like you to try:

- go through the steps that cause the problem
- when the system is locked, open a new terminal window.
- in that window, type 

    ps -eaf | grep java

  which will list out the process for the idv.
- find the process id and then type:

    kill -3 pid

  replacing pid with the process id from the ps listing.
- copy and paste that listing to an email and send it to support-idv.

Thanks.

Don Murray
