Build Identifier: 2008072418

In the About box (from Menu help) is displayed the text "Version 3.0a2 (2008072418)". A mouse hover or a moue selection (for an action copy 'n' past) lets the cpu full load. Cpu load goes into normal after close the box.
The Copy 'n' paste action is full functional. So, it is no big problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run a cpu load monitor and watch it
2.Open menu help - about
3.move the mouse over the text "Version ..."
Actual Results:  
cpu goes into full load

Expected Results:  
-

Please can you try a later nightly version if you can. We have recently made changes to the about dialog and these will probably fix the problem.

Exist any recent anywhere?
Ok, I will give the US version a try.
Sorry no recent Linux variants exist there. All are from same date.
