I started Thunderbird in safe mode and it still locks up. Some addition info, There is two users on this computer the second user does not have a problem getting into the attachment option. Both users are listd as administrators.

In Thunderbird On the toolbar > Click the > beside help on the menu. > Troubleshooting information Click the show profile button. Close Thunderbird Delete the file mimetypes.rdf Restart Thunderbird.

That should force a full rebuild of the attachments data in Thunderbird so I would expect the problem to be solved.
