I do see that from time to time but it's not really related to Squirrel
itself. I run in a virtual desktop environment, and if Squirrel/Java pops
a modal dialog the main Squirrel window will "lock up". I have to go
hunting for the dialog minimizing windows across multiple desktops,
because the dialog won't necessarily automatically be on top of other
windows and I might not have been on the Squirrel desktop when the modal
dialog was opened - update checks are especially annoying this way.
I'm not sure if something similar might happen in a non-virtual-desktop
environment, but if Squirrel locks up on you again, you might try to see
if you can find a hidden modal dialog box that's blocking things.
