the bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/238425 "Nautilus 2.22.2 If a text file has executable permissions set and is double clicked in nautilus the following occurs. A dialogue box saying Do you want to run "test.c", or display it's contents? "test.c" is an executable text file. There are four options: Run in terminal Display Cancel Run This is as it should be. After a short delay another dialogue box appears and steals focus from the first. The message is: Opening "test.c" You can stop this operation by clicking cancel. The dialogue contains a single cancel button. The button is unclickable. The only way to get rid of the window is to change focus back to the first dialogue and select and option. Both dialogues are then destroyed. Problem occurs whether text file is really executable or not. http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15129884/nbug.png screenshot"
