Granted, this is just a trifle off-topic from your above plight.  Recently,
I noticed that every time I tried to use "gaussian blur", Photoshop would
crash.  I tried all of the other "blur" filters....and most of all the other
filters.  Everything was fine *except* for the "sinister" gaussian blur!
Finally, I just gave up and re-installed Photoshop ('twas version 6 for me).

I realize that this is not a blazing new revelation...but probably a good
practical suggestion as a starting point for your troubleshooting.
