First of all, first post here.
Secondly, probably the wrong location as well.

Either way; I've got this really annoying problem where sometimes Eclipse will stop working after my workspace is initialized. That is, Windows 7 tells me that two threads within Eclipse.exe are waiting for network-IO to complete. Uses up 100% CPU usage and just hangs and never exits.

I've managed to pin-down the problem to the .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.ui.workbench/workbench.xml file.
When I remove that fille Eclipse starts without a problem and I can work just fine. However I'll loose my whole UI settings.

I've got the following software installed:
  Atlassian Connector for Eclipse (Required)            3.0.2.v20111010

  Subversion Revision Graph                             1.1.1

I've attached the workbench.xml file in the hopes someone can tell me why this is happening.

Some extra information:
- Disabling network connection does not help.
- Running Windows 7 x86
- Eclipse Indigo Service Release 1, Build id: 20110916-0149
