I am seeing the same thing on one of my systems. It appears to be caused by having a Firewire adapter installed (mine is a SIIG combo USB2+IEEE1394 card). If I remove the card, the problem goes away. The Firewire card appears to work properly. I just can't use Hardware Browser at all when it is installed.
Just realized that this is a duplicate of 74956. The workaround posted for 74956 worked for me.
Resolving as a dupe of bug #74956, which I just fixed. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 74956 ***
