collapsing finder windows - vanishing aliases

After start-up of my Mac, opening a new finder window results in collapsing all other open finder windows. This effect is not stable, because it happens only from time to time. Also my aliases to folders or docs in the side of my finder windows, made to my external La Cie Biggest Quadra RAID harddisk (connected by eSATA PCI card) vanish after some time.
Another issue is the fact that my Adobe suite applications frequently mention bad closing of the applications.
I changed to a new Mac to overcome these problems, but it stays going on.

MacPro Quad core - Snow Leopard 10.6.3
 
If you installed too much data in your desktop it could crash the finder
try to move large files to the hard disk and create alises for them
 
there are no data files on my desktop... I do not think this is an issue here.
finder windows just close by themselves when trying to open a disk in the finder; it is not a constant phenomenon, and it frequently occurs after a fresh start-up, and when I have been working a while, everything works fine again.

What is constant, is the fact that deliberately quitting a CS4 application nearly always is followed by the message box that the application unexpectedly is quit. Even after re-installing the whole suite, this keeps going on.
